Publishers Weekly (starred review) raves "Crusie charms with her brisk, edgy style..."
Kirkus (starred review) of Crusie's latest, New York Times bestselling Fast Women states "Move over, Susan Isaacs. Crusie is just as smart and sassy about the things a woman has to do to make love work, and a lot funnier to boot."
Reformed art forger Tilda Goodnight reluctantly joins forces with semi-reformed con man Davy Dempsey to steal a dubious painting and several million embezzled dollars from a lethal widow named Clea who has targeted a mild-mannered art collector as her next dearly departed. Complications include her sister, the female impersonator; his best friend, the reformed cat burglar; a recidivist embezzler named Rabbit; a hit man, some lousy sex, and a juke box. Trouble ensues...
Tilda Goodnight paints murals of masterpieces on customers' dining room walls in order to keep her family and their gallery safe from the tax man. As she tries to retrieve some forged art work, she encounters a retired con man who is trying to retrieve three million dollars. This is a work that might have been better abridged. It would have been faster anyway. Aasne Vigesaa reads without voicing characters, but she spices up the story with a brashness that works for this novel filled with odd characters and amusing plots.
