Description
From bestselling author Steve Hockensmith and tarot expert Lisa Falco comes a new mystery that isn't fooling around
Since taking over the White Magic Five and Dime, Alanis McLachlan has been tracking down old customers and making amends for her mother's con jobs. So when Marsha—one of the shop's most loyal clients—comes looking for a way out of her abusive marriage, Alanis does everything she can to help.
But lending a hand leads to unforeseen consequences, including the murder of Marsha's husband. Now Alanis has to use her wiles to undo a mess of her own making. Her growing mastery of the tarot might help her find the truth...if the killer doesn't get to her first.

This is the eagerly awaited second installment in what is proving to be one of the most entertaining and intriguing new mystery series in the last few years! A fast and fascinating, heady concoction of con-artistry, Tarot card-reading, and karma-driven good deeds, the story expands the characters from the last one and introduces a couple of new ones that enticingly set the stage for more exploits. This series had me hooked from day one, and I'm even more captured by the second story. More, please! Highly recommended.
Light-hearted fun. Find the first one and read it, too!
