Description
She's working undercover--and she's in way over her head.
Scrappy Traffic Enforcement agent Maisie McGrane has finally landed her dream job as a Chicago police officer. There's just one catch. She must remain undercover as a meter maid to gather evidence against Stannislav Renko, a charismatic Serbian mobster running a brutal multi-million dollar mobile chop-shop operation.
When Maisie is targeted by a killer who leaves a body slumped against her car, Renko comes to her rescue and takes her under his wing. From her perch inside the crime boss's inner circle, Maisie sets up a daring sting operation to take down Renko once and for all. But can she pull it off before her family of overprotective Irish cops and her sexy ex-Army Ranger boyfriend blow her cover?
Advance Praise
“Sprightly…A wild whirl of plots and counterplots, the book offers occasional hot sex and equally occasional violence.”– Publishers Weekly
“This action-packed but fairly light caper will please readers favoring strong, creative female sleuths.”– Booklist
“Reminiscent of Janet Evanovich…A fair offering in the scrappy female detective genre.” – Library Journal
Praise for TIME'S UP:“Mack’s outstanding debut conjures up equal parts Janet Evanovich and Michael Harvey…Riotous characters, including the large McGrane clan, enhance a fast and furious plot that expertly balances menace and laugh-out-loud hijinks.” –Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW
"Mystery buffs will not only be swept up in the ingenious and well-crafted plot but will love the irrepressible Maisie, who knows what she wants…Recommended for readers who miss the works of Eleanor Taylor Bland and enjoy those of Tim Dorsey." - Library Journal STARRED REVIEW
