REVIEWS for My Boss is a Serial Killer
"This story of a burly detective, a spunky legal secretary, and her obsessive-compulsive boss is wildly funny."
Publisher's Weekly (Feb 2, 2009) writes:
"Paralegal Harlin pulls out all the stops in this witty, catty and romantic mystery debut. Carol Frank, a legal secretary who merrily riffs on the petty personalities and turf wars in her Kansas City law firm, adores her kindly, obsessive-compulsive boss, Bill Nestor. Then sexy police detective Gus Haglund starts inquiring about Adrienne Maxwell, a widow whose suicide may have been murder. Maxwell wasn't the first woman to kill herself after having Bill draft her will, and his exhaustive case notes include suspiciously detailed data about security systems. Carol's investigation turns up further evidence implicating Bill, but how can she betray the best boss she's ever worked for, even to a romantic cop who knows numerous uses for handcuffs? Harlin's memorable, entertaining characters populate a well-crafted mystery that keeps readers guessing to the end."
Gemma Halliday, author of the High Heels series, says,
"Christina Harlin is a wonderful new voice in the romantic mystery genre. Mixing hot suspense, sexy romance, and wonderfully quirky characters, Harlin's My Boss is a Serial Killer is one for the keeper shelf."
Susan Gregg Gilmore, author of Looking for Salvation at the Dairy Queen, says,
"John Grisham and Danielle Steele seemingly meet head on in Christina Harlin’s wonderfully entertaining debut novel, My Boss Is A Serial Killer. Legal secretary Carol Frank, Harlin’s sassy heroine and devotee of television cop shows, investigates a string of mysterious suicides. As she unravels the clues in this romantic whodunit, Frank not only contends with her boss’s quirky behavior but attracts the attention of one hunky detective leading us all on a fun and passionate chase for the killer."
