Sinossi
"...A thoroughly original first novel with characters you'll never forget."--Tony Hillerman "A terrific read!"--Clive Cussler "Stellar" --Publishers Weekly
GYPSIES ARE FOREVER. AND SO HELPFUL IN A FAMILY MURDER!
Once you marry into a gypsy clan, just try to get out! Annie Szabo loved her husband, but after his death, she was only too happy to leave his outrageous clan behind, especially her pushy mother-in-law, Madame Mina. But Mina wasn't just any pushy relative. As the heart of the close-knit Szabo family, she was also powerful, stubborn, and definitely to be avoided.
Well, too bad for Annie!
When her oldest friend, Jerry, turns up dead, she’s plunged back into the family she tried to leave behind. She knows Jerry was murdered, but how is she supposed to prove it?
Easy, if you’ve got a gypsy family. Or anyway, easier. So before you know it, Annie’s knee-deep once again in ancient curses, petty theft, and, everyone’s favorite--love magic. All thanks to Madame Mina’s psychic skills and a certain wildly sexy gypsy and his shady P.I. father.
As Annie turns amateur detective, THE HUMMINGBIRD WIZARD turns sexy. Truth to tell, it’s probably one of the sexiest mysteries you're ever going to read, but not because it's explicit--there’s just something about that…wizard.
Lawyers, criminals, kink, magic, and more murder mysteries, coupled with Blevins’ trademark humor, make for a delicious—and very funny-- supernatural cozy, with a healthy dose of romance.
Prepare yourself for something really different! Blevins is a very unusual writer. And we're not the only ones who think so. Some of the most revered authors in the mystery world agreed:
"Meredith Blevins covers new literary ground...pulling it off with flair and grace and humor." ---Jonathan Kellerman
"An exciting debut. Meredith Blevins has written a thoroughly original first novel with characters you'll never forget." --Tony Hillerman
"A terrific read of a truly intriguing, finely crafted mystery."--Clive Cussler,
And Publishers Weekly raved in a STARRED REVIEW:"Fascinating gypsy lore, unforgettable characters and a wicked sense of humor distinguish Blevins's highly unusual mystery debut... This stellar first, with its assured prose, will delight any mystery fan.
LIBRARY JOURNAL named it one of their TOP FIVE books of the year. (P.S. The next year they afforded its sequel the same honor.) Here's what they said in a starred review: "Blevins flavors her lively prose with frequent humor and unexpected twists; readers will also be drawn in by the riveting characters, great plot, and insights into Gypsy culture." "---Library Journal (starred review)
Who will like it: Fans of psychic mysteries and detectives, cozy mysteries that veer off into SEXY, and lovers of all humorous mysteries—funny cozies, funny paranormals, funny romantic mysteries, and clever, quirky writing.
