Butler-detective Helen Thorpe returns to help a wannabe influencer get her life in order-and solve the murders of her fellow content creators-in this hilarious sequel to Mindful of Murder by bestselling author Susan Juby  When Buddhist butler Helen Thorpe is loaned out to help Cartier Hightower get her life in order, Helen finds herself working for a young woman entirely unbound by the fetters of good taste or sound judgment. One of Cartier's fellow content creators has recently died in a strange accident. Soon after Helen arrives, another is killed in an equally bizarre way. Cartier begins to drag Helen around on the influencer circuit, where neither of them is particularly welcome. Then comes the terrible incident at the EDM nightclub that turns Cartier into a global pariah, at least according to social media. Helen hopes a period of simplicity and reflection and an internet detox will help Cartier find her true nature and maybe acquire some social graces. But Helen's job gets much harder when Cartier's friends show up at the lavish ranch where Cartier and Helen have retreated. Soon, Helen finds herself trying to avoid becoming Instafamous while bringing some peace to a girl who very much needs it. This task turns out to be even more impossible when it becomes clear that they have been followed to Weeping Creek Ranch by a murderer.

A Meditation on Murder - A Novel

Prudence Burns is an overly idealistic Brooklyn girl who has inherited a derelict plot of land named Woefield Farm. Her motley crew of farm hands consists of Earl, an elderly, reclusive bluegrass legend; Seth, an agoraphobic heavy-metal blogger in early recovery from alcoholism; and Sara, an 11-year-old girl with a flock of elite show poultry. When Prudence is felled by a thyroid condition, things on the farm begin to fall apart, resulting in valiant and sometimes ill-advised attempts to restore domestic bliss. Efforts are complicated by a renegade mule, attempts to turn a hideously ugly child's playhouse into a high-yield roadside farm stand, and an electrical station's worth of crossed wires. Will Prudence get well? Will Seth finally get rid of his pesky virginity? Will Earl rescue Sara? And will anyone, ever, admit they might be wrong?Told in four highly distinct, unforgettably hilarious, and sometimes heartbreaking voices, Republic of Dirt is about what happens when passions collide with pride and what it takes to save each other, our small part of the planet, and ourselves.

Getting the Girl - A Guide to Private Investigation, Surveillance, and Cookery

À l'avenir, si ma mère essaie de me faire honte de sa désapprobation, je lui ferai savoir en termes incertains que je la rejette et tous ses bagages codépendants. Je ne suis plus codépendant.

Si vous êtes vivant et conscient, vous êtes probablement codépendant.

Ce n'est pas une bonne idée de laisser sur des sentiments extrêmement heureux. Les gens ont des idées.

Peut-être que les carrières ne sont pas quelque chose que vous pouvez vraiment planifier. Ils se produisent en quelque sorte, comme les yeux bruns ou les pieds plats. J'ai passé l'un de ces tests d'aptitude de carrière l'année dernière, et cela a montré que je devrais être un agent de bord ou une couturière. Pas un créateur de mode ou quoi que ce soit, faites attention, mais un travailleur de la surface de sursaut. Apparemment, des hôtesses et des travailleurs de l'aswshosshop et j'apprécie beaucoup les mêmes intérêts et activités.
