(Molly Forrester 03) Pacto de muerte di Sheryl Anderson
La columnista de Zeitgeist Molly Forrester quiere demostrar de una vez por todas que es una buena periodista y conseguir por fin ese ascenso que le permita dejar el consultorio sentimental y escribir artículos “serios”. El asesinato de un conocido publicista será la ocasión ideal para poner de nuevo a prueba sus dotes de investigadora. A pesar de la la intromisión de su ex y de la oposición de su novio, el detective de homicidios Kyle Edwards, Molly contará con la ayuda de sus amigas y no desistirá aunque las pesquisas pongan en peligro tanto su relación como su propia vida.… (altro)

Natt90 | 3 altre recensioni | Jun 28, 2022 | Últimamente las cosas no han ido demasiado bien para Molly Forrester: el nuevo editor de Zeitgeist, la revista para la que trabaja, disfruta rechazando cualquier propuesta que venga de ella; y su novio (o algo así), el detective Kyle Edwards, no parece muy dispuesto a llevar su relación a un nuevo nivel de compromiso. Es el momento perfecto para una escapada de fin de semana con sus amigas, y la fiesta de compromiso del hermano de su amiga Tricia será la ocasión ideal. Pero la extraña muerte de la prometida dará al traste con sus planes y Molly, convertida de nuevo en investigadora, se verá envuelta en un caso lleno de sexo, peligro, mentiras… y también mucho humor.… (altro)

Natt90 | 4 altre recensioni | Jun 28, 2022 | Manhattan, actualidad. Molly Forrester siempre había esperado la oportunidad de hacer un buen reportaje. Colabora en la revista de Zeitgeist, pero le encantaría trabajar en la plantilla de Marie Claire o de Cosmo, pero no hay manera de sobresalir entre la media. Así que cuando se tropieza literalmente con un crimen –cae encima del cuerpo de un colega de profesión, estropeándose sus carísimos zapatos ve la ocasión perfecta para meterse de lleno en una noticia tan real y escabrosa como la vida misma. La sangre pertenece a su amigo Teddy que está muerto en el suelo de la oficina con un cuchillo en su garganta. Una vez llegan los detectives, Molly discrepa con las conclusiones a las que han llegado, que incluyen a la esposa de Teddy como primera sospechosa del crimen. Pero ella aún se siente poco preparada para dar el gran salto a la investigación criminal, así que le pide ayuda a Cassady y a Tricia, sus mejores amigas, con las que siempre puede contar para lo que sea, y éstas, evidentemente, aceptan de buen grado por el morbo que les despierta el caso. Al poco de que Molly y sus amigas se hayan inmerso en la investigación, hay un segundo asesinato. Tirando del hilo relacionan las dos muertes con las repentinas irregularidades financieras de la sección de contabilidad de la revista Zeitgeist.… (altro)

Natt90 | 8 altre recensioni | Jun 28, 2022 | This is a re-read of the first book in a series I have on my "will never part with" shelves. Probably the first murder mystery I'd read that was more "chick-lit" than cozy, I love this book. It's witty, funny, well-written and has a great mystery plot. Plus, a great start to a killer romance. :)
Molly is a journalist for a women's lifestyle magazine, writing the advice column. Of course she aspires to become a much more serious journalist, writing deep, thought provoking articles about things that matter, but she's not shallow "*sigh* I just know I can do better!" about it - she's working hard and looking for opportunities to advance her career in much the same way anybody in the real world would. She has her two best friends there to keep her grounded and cheer her on at the same time and doing both in the most delightfully witty, snarky way possible.
This book and the other three in the series are as much about the power of best friends than it is about anything else. I love all three of these characters and if I had to live the life of anyone in any of my books, Molly's life would be in the top three, and it would be more for her friends than for the hot detective (although there wouldn't be a huge gap between them). Although I'd have to pass on the shoes; I like my feet too much to torture them daily in 3-4 inch stilettos.
There is a fair amount of fashion and designer name dropping in this series, which annoys some people; I could take it or leave it, so I usually skim over it when it gets to be too much.
The mystery was really well done; even after multiple re-reads I don't have any plot holes screaming out at me, making the murderer unexpected. The chemistry between Molly and Kyle as she continues to investigate is sizzling without ever being graphic; this book adheres to cozy mystery conventions even if it is much more chick-lit in tone and theme.
This is one of those series I was hugely disappointed to see end. If Ms. Anderson ever self published Molly, I'd be the first in line with my e-reader in hand. I miss her and her friends quite a bit.… (altro)
