Accidental PI Tess Monaghan

Share this post on:

Accidental PI Tess Monaghan series is written by Laura Lipman. Ms. Lippman is a former major newspaper reporter who started writing fiction and retired from the local newspaper after a couple of her books were published. She has a major following, won several awards and a very nice website that looks to be recently updated but needs a little tweak on the left side panel as it doesn’t move down the page to show more items past the first frame. But the other parts work really well and she seems to take her self-promotion duties to heart. She has a Twitter feed, Facebook page, and Instagram accounts that she posts to regularly and has quite a few “Likes”, “Loves” and “Follows”. Check out her books below.

1. Baltimore Blues: The First Tess Monaghan Novel – 1997

Taken from the Goodreads Page.
“In a city where someone is murdered almost every day, attorney Michael Abramowitz’s death should be just another statistic. But the slain lawyer’s notoriety—and his taste for illicit midday trysts—makes the case front-page news in every local paper except the Star, which crashed and burned before Abramowitz did.

A former Star reporter who knows every inch of this town—from historic Fort McHenry to the crumbling projects of Cherry Hill—now-unemployed journalist Tess Monaghan also knows the primary suspect: cuckolded fiancé Darryl “Rock” Paxton. The time is ripe for a career move, so when rowing buddy Rock wants to hire her to do some unorthodox snooping to help clear his name, Tess agrees. But there are lethal secrets hiding in the Charm City shadows. And Tess’s own name could end up on the ever-expanding list of Baltimore dead.”
