Wrong Poison (A Grace "The Hit Mom" Mystery, #1)

by Nikki Knight

Overview

She's a nice suburban mom and a sacred assassin...and Grace Adair's secret life has just become a problem.

 

In "WRONG POISON," Grace knows she's in trouble when a death at the Library Book Fair turns out to be murder – by a poison used only by her ancient sisterhood. Now, she'll need all her skills as a PTA mom and former prosecutor to find the killer and protect her friends…and their secrets. Hopefully without using her other skills.

 

About those other skills: Grace and her sweet older pal Madge are members of a 700-year-old order of assassins, sacred to the Archangel Gabriel and sworn to remove evil men who elude man's justice. Think #MeToo with a poison solution.

 

With the unwitting help of her diverse and colorful parent pals, Scotchie the Giant Dog, and her clueless defense lawyer husband, Grace tracks the killer and unearths all kinds of secrets in suburbia...finally cornering the killer in a wild confrontation at the PTA Ice Cream Social.

 

Can she protect her friends and her sisterhood? Or is it the end of centuries of quietly meting out justice – and Grace herself?

 

Call it a cozy with a twist. You've never met anyone like Grace…and you'll never forget her.

About the Author

Nikki Knight likes to describe herself as an author/anchor/mom…not in that order. An award-winning radio news anchor, she’s a longtime weekend morning fixture at New York’s #1 news station, 1010 WINS.

She started her career as a teenage DJ at her Western Pennsylvania hometown radio station, and worked her way up through newsrooms in Pittsburgh, Vermont, and Connecticut, never losing her love of the work – or her hatred for snow.

The first Jaye Jordan Vermont radio mystery, LIVE, LOCAL, AND DEAD, was published in February 2022 by Crooked Lane Books. As Kathleen Marple Kalb, she writes the Ella Shane historical mystery series for Kensington. Her Jaye Jordan short stories have appeared in DEADLY NIGHTSHADE: Best New England Crime Stories 2022, CRIMEUCOPIA: Tales from the Back Porch, and DARK AND STORMY NIGHT, and online at Tough Magazine, Mystery Tribune, and White Cat Publications, among others. She was a 2022 Derringer Finalist and the Jaye Jordan story "Bad Apples" was an Honorable Mention in the Black Orchid Novella Award Contest.
