The church girl's alternative to Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum novels features Amanda Bell Brown as she grapples with faith, a fine man, and turning thirty-five--while tripping over mysteries in her high heels. For Amanda Bell Brown, just living her life is murder! How's a churchgoing gumshoe supposed to grapple with keeping the faith, finding a man, and turning thirty-five when she keeps tripping in her high heels over mysteries--and not just the God kind? Life as a forensic psychologist isn't quite as cool as it looks on prime-time TV. But with her birthday approaching and no current prospects for fulfilling her dream of having a family, Amanda Bell Brown decides to get out and paint the town--in her drop-dead red birthday dress. Instead, she finds herself at the scene of a crime, and she just may know who the killer is. She needs to spill her guts, but not on the handsome lead detective's alligator shoes--especially if she wants him to ask her out. A complicated murder investigation unearths a closet full of skeletons Amanda thought were long gone. Murder, mayhem, and a fine man are wreaking havoc on her birthday, but will her sleuthing leave her alive to see past thirty-five?
