Opis

MY Unlikely SAINT ACT I, BOOK 1. Writer Jennifer Sands needs a story. The lone woman sitting at the bar just happens to have one. The story isn't free. The woman is a career criminal and could use some help with an impossible contract. It's nothing risky, the woman tells Jennifer. It's research, Jennifer tells herself. The criminal explains how she works in disguise using all variations of the Catholic saints as her identities. She stays out of jail because none of her employers know who she is. Over the course of five taped interviews, Jennifer witnesses the woman's unimaginable genius for deception and believes she has stumbled upon a serious true crime confessional, a cozy Catch Me If You Can, so to speak. Maybe even a bestseller. Yes, she'll drive the getaway car. One quick step in the gutter can't hurt. But the job gets botched (or so it seems), and all that remains is a mishmash of tales on tape. Jennifer tries to make sense of these ramblings, but sees her bestselling true crime confessional turn into an impossible mystery. Not for long. A surly detective shows up at her door with a pixelated snapshot of Jennifer behind the wheel of the getaway car. In too deep for denial, she must find this woman and discover what crime, if any, she has witnessed. My Unlikely Saint is an accidental mystery seen through the starry eyes of Jennifer Sands. It is the first book in a densely plotted, parallel twosome.
