From Publishers Weekly

The Private Eye Writers of America named Kijewski winner of the Best First Novel contest, and her spunky investigator, Kat Colorado, is sure to win the hearts of mystery fans. From home in Sacramento, Kat jets to Las Vegas to check on a fortune owed to her friend Charity Collins by Charity's ex-husband, Sam. Kat proves that Sam's story of losing the money at the casinos is a fraud, but before she confronts him, he dies, apparently accidentally. Although aware of dangers in the neon jungle, Kat keeps prying into scams that mobsters routinely cover up by killing witnesses, and she is soon on their hit list. As related by the heroine, the story successfully combines stark terrors, comedy (thanks to flaky Charity, a columnist offering dubious advice) and even pathos in recollections of Kat's sad childhood. And, her independence notwithstanding, Kat's love affair with detective Hank Parker may add appeal to the further adventures of this spirited sleuth.

Kat Colorado, a feisty but small-time private-eye, gets more than she bargained for, and loves it. Her best friend's husband seems to be "loosing" bundles of money just before his divorce, and Kat's investigation turns up various criminal activities. --Ce texte provient de la Paperback édition.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Introducing Kat Colorado, Avril 7 2003
This review is from: Katwalk (Paperback)
I quite enjoyed reading this short, fast paced mystery introducing Kat Colorado, a female Sacramento PI.

Kijewski has defended setting her series in Sacramento, and I was quite interested in reading a book set in a smaller Californian city, but in fact Kat's debut case takes her off to Las Vegas in pursuit of a friend's no-good husband. As befits a mystery, things soon take a more murderous turn.

I liked the main character and was carried along by the energy of the narrative, though I think Kat does some rather silly things along the way. I will read more in the series.

5.0étoiles sur 5 The book was fast moving, Mai 29 2002
This review is from: Katwalk (Paperback)
I was only able to read a couple of pages the first night I got the book and right away I was dreaming about the story. VERY engrosing characters. Kat is a gal that, for some reason, sticks with you for a while.
The characters were well developed and that was good, considering how fast the storyline moves. I enjoyed the column starting each chapter. It was an entertaining read too. I like to read about strong women who know how to defend themself (Even with a cast on)

5.0étoiles sur 5 A good read..., Aoû 29 2000
Par Katrina Lehto (Seattle, WA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Katwalk (Paperback)
This book is one of the more amusing ones, even though the subject matter is just as important as all of the other books. I enjoy Kat and this bookd lets her shine. Go pick it up.

5.0étoiles sur 5 A stubborn P.I. who can't leave things alone
Kat takes a job to help a friend and leads to a trip to Las Vegas, an old friend, murder and romance. Hard to put down. Funny at times.
