THE IT GIRLFabulous and dangerous are our new protagonists Sylvie Kurt. More than just beautiful: smart but broke-and on the run from drug dealers seeking revenge for her exposure of a major drug trafficking ring. Genre experts now predict SylvieKurtz's young southern, middle-class heroine to become the first Latinas to feature on the covers of American bestsellers, along with Grimms Fairy Tales and of course ASOUE by Lemony Snicket. Action is the name of the game in The It girls, with rich Italian spies going undercover in the Barrio Latino to unearth the deaths of half the city's prize horses. Not to be outdone (we're sure Her Majesty The Queen says "Bacon!") the Royal Bloods are cozy with gambling hells, and covering it up when the superficial-appearances-wise cops investigate. Sylvie herself has leather breeches and throws herself off horses... (Typically, during a morning run) She'll chase bad guys, romance quirky men with too much sex appeal to count and aspires to Barnum pioneer in disguise. No one will be safe from Sylvie if she has reason to believe a crime has been committed-or worse, that carnage may erupt. Anything to save her ex-boyfriend, the police detective she once crossed paths with during her own adventure. Luckily perspective partners include the charming and reformed former hip-hop hustler Charles Antoine Colbert Dijkstra and Harold Ross Hardell (aka Jean-Michel Larousse and Emile Thomas Kleist-magnificent silkier slogan to rival egos everywhere), two modern masters of burglary and demostrators of mastery which mystery thrills.

Описание книги от Sylvie Kurtz
THE IT GIRLS They’re rich, fabulous… and dangerously underestimated. IT GIRL: Alexa CheltinghamMISSION: Pose as a grubby groom to stop a high-stakes horse killer and protect the Mayor of New York’s show-jumping daughter.A Cheltingham shoveling horse manure – what would Mother think? That was my first reaction when the Gotham Rose spy ring handed me this riches-to-rags assignment. But the country’s top show horses were dying suspiciously and the Roses trusted me to catch the killer.My old leg injury wouldn’t stand in my way, not by a longshot. I’d muck stalls and uncover the dirty secrets of the equine world’s bigwigs, then clean up in time to host the Horses of Hope charity ball. Speaking of the ball, I’d love to have charmer Ross Hardel for my date…too bad he’s my prime suspect.
