OUR LADY OF IMMACULATE DECEPTION - Nancy Martin
Roxy Abruzzo is working in the architectural-salvage business, salvaging items from the burned out remains of Julius Hyde’s home when she spies a statue in the yard. Roxy removes the statue from the property without anyone’s knowledge or consent. It probably wouldn’t have become a huge issue except for the fact that Julius Hyde ends up murdered and suddenly everyone’s on the trail of Hyde’s murderer and that statue.
OUR LADY OF IMMACULATE DECEPTION is Nancy Martin’s first book in her new series. This is a cute novel full of quirky characters. Roxy’s desperate attempts to stay away from her crime boss uncle’s “business” seem to be thwarted at every turn. At the core of her character, she wants to do the right thing, but sometimes the wrong thing will provide the funds to do the right thing and ethical dilemmas ensue.
Roxy’s eccentric Aunt Loretta, her employee Nooch, and her teen-age daughter Sage contribute to the various layers of the plot, but they also work to add dimension to Roxy’s unique character. Martin also gives ample development to the rich Hyde family: the matriarch on her death bed, the greedy corporate son, the spoiled youngest son, the evil daughter-in-law, and the drug addicted granddaughter. A dynamic cast of characters.
OUR LADY OF IMMACULATE DECEPTION has humor, drama, conniving and crime. You won’t be at a loss for entertainment with this new series.

Yay! I've been wanting to read this one!
I've had my eye on this one for a bit and would love to win a copy. I think it might work well for my mystery book group if the library gets enough copies (always an issue). Seems like there would definitely be discussion points. :-)
Hi Jen. So glad you enjoyed it. And, Kay needs to know there would definitely be discussion points in this one. Fun book, wasn't it?
Missed my chance to meet your Craig Johnson on Sunday. Darn. I wanted to tell him I'm a friend of yours!
Oh Lesa! I so wish you could have met Craig. I just know you would have LOVED him!
Glad you liked this one. It has gotten some mixed reviews but I enjoyed it and am looking forward to future books in the series.
Ooh, glad you liked this one! It sounds cute.
