Parading for Mardi Gras is no party...When PI Franki Amato was invited to watch her sixty-something landlady, Glenda, compete at the French Quarter's annual kickoff to Mardi Gras weekend, she had reservations. After all, the event is called the Greasing of the Poles, and Glenda is an ex-stripper. But she never expected the fun event to turn her world upside down-and, literally, the victim's. Now instead of hunting for a wedding venue with her honey, Franki's hunting for a killer. The trail seems to lead to the wealthy board of the Krewe of Clotho, a carnival organization of women whose character is nowhere near as impeccable as their blonde hair, tan outfits, and old New Orleans ancestry. As members begin to drop like beads from Bourbon Street balconies, Franki has to crack clues as murky as the krewe's signature milk punch brunch drink. Otherwise, this parade could be her last.Tuaca Tan is book 8 in the Franki Amato Mysteries, but it can be read as a standalone.

Franki's Venice vacation makes NOLA seem like Disneyland...Franki Amato is in Venice to celebrate her best friend's Christmas Eve nuptials. She's looking forward to a relaxing break from the PI grind and a romantic gondola ride with her Casanova. But when a chef goes belly up after making violet risotto for the reception, her holiday plans start sinking like La Serenissima. Dead set on finding the killer and saving her BFF's wedding, Franki navigates the city's streets and canals that are darker and more twisted than catacomb tunnels, and all while ghosts of past and present are quite literally haunting her. She has to figure out what grave robberies and an eighteenth-century nun have to do with the murder and decipher a string of clues as murky as the Venetian lagoon-a candlelit coffin, a jeweled cross necklace, and a bottle of Valpolicella. Will Franki get her gondola ride? Or will she too become a phantom of Venice?Valpolicella Violet is book 7 in the Franki Amato Mysteries, but it can be read as a standalone.
