Publisher Description
If the Darwin Award existed as an actual trophy, I’d bet my favorite PS5 controller I’d win it. The dedication would read, To Lena Kozek, for bravely—and idiotically—holding a mob boss at gunpoint in a public library.
Because that’s exactly what I’m doing, and it’s making my upper lip sweat like a shot glass of Fireball on a humid summer’s day.
Yes, I said gunpoint and mobster and library in one sentence. And yes, I'm standing here in my dead mother's dress, my favorite army boots, holding a gun that, three days ago, I didn't know I'd been trained to use.
Had it really only been three days? Back then, I'd been excited to pull the trigger on something completely different...

I am so completely in love with this series already
I am so completely in love with this series already. There something about it that reminds me of my favorite goofy mafia movies and series. It’s outlandish, and over the top, and utterly ridiculous in all the best ways. But there’s also an engrossing mystery and some sneaky universal truths hiding between the covers. Lena owns her geeky, awkward nerd-girl self and that’s something pretty special to witness. I loved her snark and resourcefulness. I adored the Blue Hair Mafia. And I can’t wait to discover what the future has in store for Lena and all her new friends (and maybe more) in her life.
I received a complimentary advance copy of this book through Hidden Gems Books.
