Computer science professor Penny Collins has been dragged by her sister to a tag sale being run by Anthony, who’s recently deceased uncle has left him\u2014as handsome as he is aloof\u2014with his estate, which he is now trying to unload. Things go from bad to worse when Penny\u2019s toddler nephew yanks open a closet door, only to have a dead body tumble out. From there, Anthony tries to avoid Penny and her 101 questions, while Penny can\u2019t stop herself from trying to get to the facts. Or at least get to Anthony (did I mention how handsome he is?). Sooner rather than later, the two end up locked together in their own closet, and when they finally emerge, they agree to work together. Anthony, it turns out, works as a \u201cfixer,\u201d but one of the good guys: he doesn\u2019t kill, he just, well, fixes things. There is a lot swirling around these two, including the missing wife of a technology billionaire\u2014Anthony is involved\u2014and eventually the FBI arrives on the scene.<\/strong> There are so many remarks from Penny about how Anthony smells, it\u2019s quite remarkable; this could well be the first olfactory novel. In any case, I\u2019m planning to splurge on a bottle of Tom Ford\u2019s Eau d\u2019Ombre Leather for when reading the next volume, which I sincerely hope comes along sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
