Description

Behold, a courteous disciplined expert, framed as both guilty and heel by the ironic juxtaposition of karma. This lingering masquerade, no overlay of pompousness, the questionable remnant of social disobedience, terminated. Unless, we valorous warriors, xebec yachtsmen, stand zealously against the bribing, censorious, demons, the execrable foul greedy hoarder of innovations. well, that’s a modern description of what happened – the writing of the book channels Miss Austen and does not use that kind of language). Sophie Katz, bestselling mystery writer and amateur sleuth, has just discovered that Anatoly, her sexy Russian P.I boyfriend of six years is actually married to the daughter of a Russian mafia boss. Devastated by his betrayal, Sophie banishes him from their beautiful San Francisco Victorian home.Desperate to distract their friend and pull her out of her depression, Dena and Marcus spirit Sophie away to Vegas for a “fun filled weekend” at a Sex Toy Trade Show. But bigger trouble awaits in Vegas. Anatoly is there; his beautiful Russian wife is there; and so is a dead body stuffed into a closet. And to make matters worse someone has gone out of their way to implicate Sophie in the murder. Sophie’s completely over her head and when a mysterious man offers her help she’s tempted to take it. But who is he and whose side is he on? It’s also clear that whoever the bad guy is he would have no problem killing Anatoly, and although she may want to kill him herself, no one else is going to hurt Sophie’s man. Vanity, Vengeance And A Weekend In Vegas (Sophie Katz Murder Mystery, #6) by Kyra Davis – eBook Details

Along with the bizarre characterizations we also have some errors. Distances are described in kilometers. The UK didn't adopt the Metric system until 1965 and they still measure distances in miles in 2017. Characters speak of divorce; one incredibly minor character is described as divorced. Divorce in Regency England was incredibly rare " Divorce was a long, expensive process—and rarely used outside the aristocracy. Only a handful of cases came before Parliament each year as few could afford the cost." https://www.kristenkoster.com/a-regen... “Between 1670 and 1857, 379 Parliamentary divorces were requested and 324 were granted. Of those 379 requests, eight were by wives, and only four of those were granted.” (Wright, 2004) http://englishhistoryauthors.blogspot... And Sophie is still an amateur sleuth in every sense of the word. Don't expect a highly skilled detective because she makes impulsive decisions with little thought like her bad attempt at breaking into a suspicious fan's house. Or forgetting to grab her gun before running after known criminals. One of my pet peeves about these amateur sleuth mysteries is that the heroine is much smarter than the police. She's not better than the professionals though she holds her own in her own bumbling way. Anatoly's mystery marriage, finally solved, was...a let down. It was annoying and seemed like a desperate attempt by the author to keep her series going.

It was bound to happen. The party needs to stay relentlessly focused. Measure carefully, a humble past maestro, cast as both mistreated and malefactor by the mutations of Fate. This manner, no mere masquerade of immodesty, is a mark of manumission, now missing, melted away. However, this mettle manifestation of a bygone millstone stands magnificently, and has moved to macerate these money-grubbing and malicious miscreants marshaling misconduct and mingling with the murderous malignant and merciless molestation of free mindedness.

Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.
