Her job title should be "walking disaster magnet". With accolades. And it has nothing to do with her wearing glasses.
But hey, what do you expect from a geeky precinct secretary turned undercover detective?

Pickled is a fast-paced, stress-free cozy mystery with a touch of romance and a lot of humor. A light read with no gore or foul language, this book is perfect to unwind at the end of the day.

Charlie Cooper begins a new life in her hometown, Springston. Granted, it's not as glamorous as she thought it will be. Living with her parents and her brother again means waking up at 6 a.m. with the sound of rock music and putting up with her brother's annoying video games.

Still, she's confident that a new apartment will bring her the peace and quiet that she needs. Only problem: lack of funds.
But that should change soon! Together with her new companions, Marge and Celeste, she sets out to be the best undercover investigator the town has ever seen. When their first case comes rolling in, the girls have to bring an escaped red panda back to the zoo. It's not exactly the dazzling detective work that Charlie had hoped for, but she's determined to wrap up this case promptly.

Things go south, when the girls not only find the panda, but also something else. Let's just say it's a body part that should definitely be attached to a person.
The girls launch themselves into solving the missing body part mystery, but what they get is more than they've bargained for. To top things off, Springston's most handsome detective is constantly on their tail.

Join Charlie, Marge and Celeste in this fast-paced, humorous and exciting mystery!
