Some Like It Hot: A Cat DeLuca Mystery
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
When an old friend buys a trench coat and opens his own detective agency, PI Cat DeLuca sees a train wreck coming. Everything Billy Bonham knows about being a private eye he learned from Humphrey Bogart. And that's just enough to make him dangerous.
The bungling detective is in way over his head on a case involving murder and a stolen pair of Marilyn Monroe's dazzling diamond earrings. His outrageous client, Cristina McTigue, is pursued by men who want her dead. Five minutes after meeting the woman, Cat would cheerfully kill her too.
When Billy is gunned down on the street, it's up to Cat to save his crazy client and nail a murderer. She soon finds herself knee-deep in trouble, dodging bullets and chasing diamonds. Before it's over, she'll have to look for help from her sexy FBI boyfriend, a hunky ex-spy, her outrageous Italian family of Chicago cops, and even her interfering mama.
With a cast of zany characters and a pace that's unrelenting, K. J. Larsen serves up another laugh-out-loud Cat DeLuca caper.

January 28, 2013
At the start of Larsen’s entertaining if uneven third mystery featuring Chicago PI Cat DeLuca (after 2012’s Sticks and Stones), a harried-looking Santa Claus on the run from two thuggish grinches turns out to be Cat’s first sweetheart, lovable ne’er-do-well Billy Bonham, apparently now a PI, too. Billy has taken on a case involving a pair of missing diamond earrings and a femme fatale with a brain tumor that soon lures Cat into tackling bigger game than the cheating husbands her Pants on Fire detective agency usually handles. That three sisters write under the Larsen pseudonym may account for the inconsistent tone. The slangy, cartoonish style suits Pants on Fire shenanigans and Cat’s giant family reunions with the cheerful, semicorrupt DeLuca clan, but Larsen spends so much time clowning that more serious moments, like a childhood friend’s funeral, make little impact. The lighthearted treatment of the gruesome climax may strike some as ghoulish.
