In Document #4 of the Edgar-nominated series detailing an outrageously funny family of detectives, former wild child and private investigator Izzy Spellman finally agrees to take over the family business. But the transition wonāt be a smooth oneā¦
First among her priorities as head of Spellman Investigations is to dig up some dirt on the competition, slippery ex-cop Rick Harkeyāa task she may enjoy a little too much. Next, faced with a baffling missing-persons case at the home of an aging millionaire, Izzy hires an actor friend, Len, to infiltrate the mansion as an undercover butlerāa role he may enjoy a little too much.
Meanwhile, Izzy is being blackmailed by her mother (photographic evidence of Prom Night 1994) to commit to regular blind dates with promising professionalsāan arrangement that doesnāt thrill Connor, an Irish bartender on the brink of becoming ex-boyfriend number twelve.
At Spellman headquarters, itās business as unusual. Doorknobs and light fixtures are disappearing every day, Momās been spotted crying in the pantry, and a series of increasingly demanding Spellman Rules (Rule #27: No Speaking Today) canāt quite hold the family together. Izzy also has to decipher weekly āphone calls from the edgeā from her octogenarian lawyer, Morty, as well as Detective Henry Stoneās mysterious interest in rekindling their relationsh...well, whatever it was.
Just when it looks like things canāt go more haywire, little sister Raeās internship researching pro bono legal cases leads the youngest Spellman to launch a grassroots campaign that could spring an innocent man from jailāor land Rae in it.
The Spellmans Strike Again is hands down the most hilarious, thrilling, and moving book in this bestselling, award-nominated series. And it proves beyond a reasonable doubt that Isabel Spellman, no matter how much she matures, will never be able to follow Rule #1: Act Normal.
