Product description: Private Investigator Peri Minneopa is hired to investigate a wealthy, possibly cheating wife, but the wife's girlfriends have other ideas. After all, a friend will help you move - a good friend will help you move a body.

This is the second book in the Peri Minneopa mystery series and the first one I've read. I loved it. Peri is not your typical wise-cracking PI, which adds a refreshing touch to the story. I enjoyed all the characters, especially Dino fan, Benny. The author brings them to life and creates wonderful relationships between them all. Her villains mingle dangerously close to her protag to where you experience the tension first hand. Clever plot and subplots. I'm off to check out Freezer Burn, the first in the Peri series. Excellent job, Gayle.

This is the 2nd in a set of 3 (so far) revolving around main character, P.I. Peri Minneopa, a housecleaner turned sleuth. In this installment Peri is involved in real-estate-monkey-business/murder solving, which began with an assignment to tail a suspected cheating wife. When bodies start falling, well, what's a gal to do?

I loved the 1st book, "Freezer Burn" and suggest one read that first, just for the background on the character development. Peri has a long-term romantic relationship with a detective in the Placentia Police Dept that keeps trying to keep Peri on the straight and narrow, and her nose out of police business, but she can't seem to avoid it.

Although I found the read enjoyable, I felt the relationship between the uppity women of the country club, a bit of a stretch, in what they would do for one another, even if they were loyal BFF's/childhood friends.

I liked Book 1 and Book 3 better than this one, but this was still good, I enjoyed it. I recommend the series to anyone liking light mysteries with a bit of humor. Also, this is a clean series, no foul profanity or graphic sex.

I usually choose books by title, and this one called my name. It was a cute and interesting story of a PI who does her job but becomes the victim of the tale, though it ends well. Loved the cat.. My only complaint occurs at the close of the book; the author seemed unsure of the pluralization of the name Nickels. She wrote, to quote Benny, ..."the Nickels want to take me...." No, no, no. A name (or word) ending in s, x, z, ch, or sh needs an 'es' to pluralize. The "Nickelses want to take me...."

Hit or Missus ISBN 9780985506032, Dancing Corgi Press, e-book by Gayle Carline is another Peri Minneopa Mystery series.
Peri is a resident of a small California town in a long-standing relationship with the police departments leading detective. Her strong desire for personal freedom will not allow her to enter into a marital relationship with Skip, so that each has his/her own home. She no longer is `in her thirties' but still is most attractive and Skip's only woman so they live between the two places as if they were a well established married couple. Recently, she has switched from a house cleaning business to becoming a Private Investigator. The switch has not made Skip, not the Police Chief exactly happy, but the situation continues. Her present assignment is surveillance on the wife of the region's largest land developer. This activity uncovers not only a cheating wife, but an unusual relationship and murders associated with the attempted acquisition of parcels of land.
The plot is a little tenuous and the police procedures mostly are ignored. However, the action does take place in a small town, is plentiful and the entire story provides a certain charm that I am sure appeals to many. Reviewed by John H. Manhold, award winning fiction/non-fiction author.

Peri Minneopa, whose name gets a lot of mileage in the story (Miss Menopause, "the peri-site," etc.), has left behind the housecleaning biz and remade herself as a private investigator--a caseload that mostly involves cheating spouses. When a wealthy developer hires her to follow his wife, Peri discovers more than she bargained for, starting with the unexpected deaths of her neighbors, first an elderly man and then, a few weeks later, his widow.

This is an odd whodunit: we kind of know Who from early in the book, but not Why, and one final twist caught me by surprise.

This book is a smooth read, varying from gently sarcastic humor to edge-of-the-seat suspense. The descriptions are realistic and compelling. Best of all, the author's voice seldom gets in the way of the reading experience. Most appealing is the relationship between Peri and her boyfriend, Skip, a police detective.

I really wanted to like Peri, who struck me at the beginning as a sensible heroine, with some age and experience to her. Unfortunately, about two-thirds of the way through the book I decided she and I would never be best friends. Granted, she's much easier to take than the "mean girls" who target her, but too many of the women in this book evidently never made it past the high school level of relationships.

As the book wore on, though, I had less and less ability to empathize with Peri, primarily because she does something she knows is wrong ... and she won't apologize, because she is so convinced she's right. Her inexperienced bravado and lack of common sense would get her (or somebody else) killed if this were reality. I prefer for professional women to act like professionals, especially when they are in a field dominated by men.
