Hi, again.
As I mentioned last week, I’m reviewing the full series and this week I’m introducing…
Book 2: The Black Stiletto: Black & White
Blurb: The Black Stiletto is Back! The second book of the thrilling new series. It’s 1959 and Judy Cooper, the Black Stiletto, sets out to confront the heroin kingpin of Harlem when the teenage daughter of her beloved martial arts instructor becomes a prisoner in an uptown narcotics den… and she has fallen in love again, this time with an FBI agent who has standing orders to arrest her. Meanwhile, in the present, Martin faces his own blackmail crisis when he learns there is a second copy of an 8mm film he found in his mother’s strongbox–revealing the Black Stiletto unmasked.
Book 3: The Black Stiletto: Stars & Stripes
Blurb: The Black Stiletto returns in the third book of the thrilling new series. It’s 1960 and the Black Stiletto, in her civilian persona as Judy Cooper, volunteers to work for JFK’s presidential campaign, only to become involved in a devious behind-the-scenes plot that could change the course of history. In the present, Martin, the Stiletto’s son, must deal with his mother’s worsening Alzheimer’s symptoms, his own mental health issues, and the dilemma of whether or not to reveal his family’s secrets to a new woman in his life. And then there’s Gina, the Stiletto’s granddaughter, who is exhibiting behavior that suggests she is closer in spirit to her grandmother than Martin would like.
