Finlay Donovan Is Killing It
Finlay Donovan Series
By Elle Cosimano
Meet Finlay Donovan, a single mom who's far from "killing it" in her novel "Finlay Donovan is Killing It" - despite what her new career as a contract killer might suggest.
In reality, Finlay is a stressed-out mother of two, struggling to make ends meet as a novelist. Her life is a work in progress, much like the unwritten book she owes her literary agent. And things only get more complicated when her ex-husband fires the nanny without warning, leaving Finlay to deal with the chaos - like the time she had to send her four-year-old to school with duct-taped hair after a DIY haircut gone wrong.
When Finlay's lunch conversation with her agent is misinterpreted, she inadvertently accepts a job offer to "take care" of a problematic husband. But as she soon discovers, real-life crime is far more daunting than fiction. Finlay finds herself entangled in a murder investigation, forcing her to navigate the dark underbelly of her new "profession."
With its fast-paced, witty, and authentic portrayal of motherhood, "Finlay Donovan Is Killing It" is a heartwarming and hilarious ride. As the first book in a new series by YA Edgar Award nominee Elle Cosimano, this novel is a must-read for anyone who's ever felt like they're barely holding it together - and that's most of us, right?
