Murder, suspense, sex—and some handy household tips. IN BOOK 7 OF THE HOUSEWIFE ASSASSIN SERIES: With foes in high places, what's a girl to do to put food on the table—let alone stay alive? If you're housewife assassin Donna Stone, you accept a Hollywood producer's offer to turn your life into a film. Lights, cameras and non-stop action await Donna and Jack as they use the movie's exotic location shoots to track down crucial intel needed to take down the Quorum. There will be plenty of close-ups and too many close calls. But nothing—including a lascivious leading lady, deadly stunt doubles, or being on Interpol's Most Wanted list—will stand in their way.
