Sofie’s a young Greek-American woman living in Queens. If you’d asked her a few months ago what she’d be doing now, she’d have replied, “I’m going to be married to a wonderful guy and working at my father’s, or maybe my grandfather’s, Greek restaurant.” That was before Sofie caught the groom in a compromising position with her maid of honor just before the wedding. Before she punched the priest who tried to get her to marry the cad anyway. Before she chucked her engagement ring into the garbage disposal. Before she became a junior detective for her uncle’s detective agency.

Now Sofie’s searching for a runaway wife possibly wanted by the FBI and for a vicious neighborhood mutt. And she’s got the hots for Jake Porter, Australian mystery man that Sofie suspects is either a bounty hunter or a federal agent.
