DESCRIPTION:

Her last clients fired her. Now investigator Karen Maxwell needs to prove she can be trusted to solve hard cases or she’ll be out of a job. But will she ever be taken seriously as an investigator when her only cases involve a broken jump rope and a dead parrot? 

Karen discovers a whole new world when she goes undercover into the sport of competitive jump rope. Athletes dedicate hours and hours of practice to dreams of making it to the world competition—and some might do anything to win. Add a gym-full of  raging teenage hormones and overzealous parents and it becomes even more difficult to discover the truth about that broken rope.

Meanwhile, the parrot investigation gets Karen in trouble with the Neighborhood Watch, her daughter is developing a suspicious social life, and her son can’t be trusted with the toaster oven. Then there’s the whole romance thing—Brian is a super serious church leader one minute and then acting like a crazed adolescent the next. Is there enough caffeine in the world to get her through this?

REVIEWS:

“What a fun book ! ! Not only are there 2 cases to investigate, they are so crazy that you cannot help but want to read it to the end.”
–Cozy Mystery Book Reviews

“This is a Christian mystery so there are church/God references but nothing too over the top, a good balance…  Very enjoyable book and learned a lot about jump roping competitions, apparently, this is a real thing – who knew?! We give this 4 paws up and will go back and try and read the other books too.”
