Val Fremden Strikes Again, Book 4

A  Smashing Idea ...

Most start-up businesses fail within five years. But with Geraldine Jiggles as her new partner, Val’s smashing new concept for “retail therapy” might not last five minutes. Has Val signed a pact with the she-devil herself?

Maybe ...

Just exactly who is that sharp-tongued demon in polyester pantaloons, anyway? When Val starts investigating Geraldine’s past, what she discovers threatens to tear a hole the very fabric of reality itself—or at list rip it one heck of a new unseemly seam.

It appears that Geraldine’s caustic wit may not be her only lethal weapon. And when somebody takes a long walk off a short pier, both women find themselves up to their necks in hot water. This unlikely duo is going to have to learn how to synchronize swim before they both sink faster than a lead toad in a busted fishbowl.

Come along for the hilarious ride as Val discovers that when you go digging around in someone else's ancient history, you could end up in ruins yourself.
