'A' is for Actress
(2015)(The first book in the Malibu Mystery series)
A novel by Sean Black and Rebecca Cantrell
"Sofia scribbled a list of the things that might be required to get a typical middle-aged man to make a pass at a woman who was not his wife.
Three small sips of wine later, she had come up with:
1.Two arms.
2.Two legs.
3.A winning smile.
4.A vajayjay.
5.Breasts.
6.A heartbeat.
She chewed the end of the pencil, thought about it a little more deeply, and crossed through the first three items."
Readers, meet Sofia Salgado, Malibu's newest private investigator.
After a decade spent in the glare of the Hollywood spotlight as the star of kids' TV show Half Pint Detective, Sofia Salgado has had enough. Desperate to build a life outside showbiz, she quits acting to do something that everyone around her - including her family thinks is plain nuts. Get a real job.
They think she's even crazier when she announces that she's going to become a real detective, instead of playing one on TV. She's convinced the technical consultant from her TV show, Brendan Maloney, to take her on in his detective agency, but can
accident-prone Sofia deal with paparazzi-filled stakeouts, the world’s most annoying partner, and real-life murder?
