Who killed the infamous Johanna Cartier? Sémya Slotin is thrown back in the business of solving mysteries when she found her body. With the help of her best friend Polliannah Koch, DCI Ally Gibbons and the mysterious but extremely sexy Josh Heinz, she vows to see this through.

This was supposed to be an easy case...

Sémya Slotin had spent the last three years living in London with her best friend Polliannah Koch staying away from solving cases. After Hawaii, she was taking a break from puzzles, cases and mysteries that could potentially get her killed. Instead, she had been doing her second and third favorite things, drinking and selling expensive vintage wines and having earth-shattering sex with the mysterious, sexy, beautiful but ever so secretive Josh Heinz. Life in London was good....until her funds ran out. Too much wine drinking, not enough wine selling!

 When fashion designer and adoptive mother, Annika Slotin, summoned her back to Paris to hire her for what Sémya considered being the easiest case of her amateur sleuth career, all she could think of and see was money signs and a well-deserved Cuban holiday once it was solved.
What Sémya didn't see was her stumbling on the fresh corpse of supermodel Johanna Cartier. She didn't think that male model turned fashion designer Julian Marais-Caldwin, who also happened to be Sémya's ex, would be suspected of brutally murdering her. Johanna was his girlfriend, his muse and he loved her. Sémya didn't see the dead bodies piling up or the conspiracy theories.

Sémya was a little rusty. But then again, it was supposed to be an easy case and she was going to solve it. One vintage wine at a time... Sémya Slotin was officially back in business!

Mystery isn’t my favorite genre, only lately have I started reading it more often. Well, after reading Bird Of Prey I like it even more. Semya Slotin is an absolute delight to the detective world, she is absolutely brilliant. Until her mother called her to help with a case, she was selling wine with her bff Polliannah, as well as spending time with her hot boyfriend Josh Heinz, who is also a mystery in himself.  As she heads in to solve an easy case as she puts it, she discovers that it isn’t going to be just that easy. Watch out folks Semya Slotin is back.
  I just loved this story and I am eager to dive into the next. This is a well written book that held my attention and kept me guessing until it was over. I recommend this book to mystery lovers everywhere, you will enjoy the author’s way of telling her tale. It was really easy to picture the world in which the characters were moving in and include yourself in that picture. To be there is absolutely thrilling. I would like to thank Danielle-Claude Ngontang Mba & Girls Heart Books for making this book available for me to read and review. It was a fantastic read!
