As part of her research for talk-show host Dr. Cookie Lahven's upcoming book How to Avoid Getting Dumped All the Time, L.A. greeting-card artist and gift-shop manager Wollie Shelley is dating forty men in sixty days, but her assignment is complicated by an unexpected corpse, a "doctor" on the run from the Mob, her paranoid-schizophrenic brother, and her investigation into the crime. A first novel.

Recensione:

"Harley Jane Kozak has created a set of delightful characters in Dating Dead Men. Wollie, her entrepreneur extraordinaire, manages to deal with a murder, the Mafia, an appealing but mysterious love interest, and a killer who wants to see her dead, all with originality and humor. Lately, I find myself looking over my shoulder when I'm driving to see if there's a Hummer behind me. I hope she comes back for a second act."
--Lee Harris, author of Murder in Hells Kitchen

"Lots of action, quirky characters, an engaging new sleuth who designs greeting cards, and a ferret named Margaret -- what more could any reader want?  Dating Dead Men is a superb debut."
--Valerie Wolzien, author of A Fashionable Murder

"Dating Dead Men is the funniest mystery I've read in ages. Any woman who has ever wondered how many more Mr. Wrongs she'll have to date to meet Mr. Right will love this book. Dating Dead Men is delightful, wicked, and well-written--I look forward to the next Harley Jane Kozak novel!"
 --Jan Burke, author of Nine

"Dating Dead Men, Harley Jane Kozak's hilarious deubut novel, proves that the search for love can be as funny as it is deadly, as it ricochets from one madcap misadventure after another with the speed of a bullet and the uproarious fun of a three-ring circus. An absolutely delightful tale, told with warmth and charm, that will keep you guesing until the final pages."
--Kris Neri, author of Agatha, Anthony and Macavity Award-nominated Tracy Eaton Mysteries

"Harley Jane Kozak fashions a doozy of a debut, starting cars, cads clothes and an L.A. world gone hilariously mad."
--Mary Daheim, author of Silver Scream: A Bed-and-Breakfast Mystery
