"This book hits all the right notes. I now want a week at the beach
to read them all... I'm completely smitten." -Barbara Vey
"The Housewife Assassin's Handbook is a hilarious, laugh-out-loud
read. Donna is a fantastic character - practical, witty, and
kick-ass tough. There's plenty of action - both in and out of the
bedroom - and although there are a few grittier scenes, generally
this is a light, humourous caper of a crime novel. I especially
love the housekeeping tips at the start of each chapter - each with
its own deadly twist!This book is perfect for relaxing in the bath
after a long day. I can't wait to read the next in the series.
Highly Recommended." -Stephanie Broadribb's Crime Thriller Girl
blog
"Plans go slightly awry, but Donna's creativity and never-say-die
attitude gets her to the school (almost) on time. She handles both
roles like a pro, slipping from mommy to assassin back to mommy
again, perhaps not flawlessly, but with humor and skill." -Dianna
Douglas, Book Blogger
