(2019)(A book in the Janet Black Mystery series)
An omnibus of novels by Libby Kirsch
For fans of Janet Evanovich! Janet Black is who you'd get if Stephanie Plum owned a bar and loved to swear. Enjoy the first three books in the Janet Black Mystery Series at a great value!
Last Call
A Dumpster, a body, and a killer on the run.
Unfazed after finding a body behind the Dumpster of her bar, Janet Black is ready for business as usual until police start eyeing her boyfriend as the possible killer. When the victim's teetotaling daughter decides to take up residence in the corner booth until the murderer is caught, Janet is forced to get involved.
She'd rather be dealing with unruly customers, but instead Janet reluctantly mounts her own investigation to find out if the dead man's complicated past could have anything to do with his death, whether an unreliable employee's absence is mere coincidence, and why police are purposefully feeding her bad information about the case.
Janet's sharp tongue and coarse personality make her the guilty pleasure heroine you've always wanted.
Last Minute
An amateur PI. A town full of secrets. Can she uncover the truth before another body drops?
Janet Black is a hardworking bar owner determined to make her own way in the world. But when one of her regulars learns of a suspicious death in the family, she'll have to put her business on hold to solve the crime. While local police chalk up the cause of death to an accidental overdose, Janet's investigative intuition suspects more is at stake. But without an official PI license, she'll need to grab clues quick before she's caught.
When Janet discovers the victim has ties to a drug dealer and a hired escort, she worries she's in over her head. Especially when her prime suspect turns up dead. Can she protect the innocent and find the real killer before she becomes the next victim?
Last Minute is the second standalone book in the heart-pounding Janet Black Mystery series. If you like fast-paced suspense, blue-collar heroines, and stunning plot twists, then you'll love Libby Kirsch's maverick saga of suspense.
Last Chance
A missing girl, a sleuth in training, and family secrets with deadly consequences.
Janet Black, the feisty bar owner and apprentice PI in Knoxville, Tennessee, is back, and she's taken a job her mentor told her to run from: finding a missing teenage girl.
But with her computer-expert boyfriend, and an ear fine-tuned for gossip from her years as a bartender, she figures she's just the right person to make a difference.
As she dives into the case, though, she finds that the mother's not telling the whole story, setting Janet up for a dangerous discovery. And trouble never comes alone. Her bar is flagged for liquor-code violations, a construction project gets out of hand, and she uncovers weird, possibly criminal, obsessions in her new chef.
Janet refuses to acknowledge she's out of her depth--and thinks she just needs more time to put the puzzle pieces together and find the girl. But when a dead body surfaces, her world view is shaken. Suddenly, finding the missing girl is more than just an altruistic act. Her very life depends on it. As the sinister plot twists ever closer to her own life, Janet is faced with a dilemma. When it comes to the ones you love, how many chances are too many?
