A USA TODAY BESTSELLER From New York Times bestseller Elle Cosimano comes Finlay Donovan Rolls the Dice--the fiercely anticipated next installment in the beloved Finlay Donovan series. "Finlay Donovan is irresistible "--Janet EvanovichFinlay Donovan and her nanny/partner-in-crime Vero are in sore need of a girls' weekend away. They plan a trip to Atlantic City, but odds are--seeing as it's actually a cover story to negotiate a deal with a dangerous loan shark, save Vero's childhood crush Javi, and hunt down a stolen car--it won't be all fun and games. When Finlay's ex-husband Steven and her mother insist on tagging along too, Finlay and Vero suddenly have a few too many meddlesome passengers along for the ride. Within hours of arriving in their seedy casino hotel, it becomes clear their rescue mission is going to be a bust. Javi's kidnapper, Marco, refuses to negotiate, demanding payment in full in exchange for Javi's life. But that's not all--he insists on knowing the whereabouts of his missing nephew, Ike, who mysteriously disappeared. Unable to confess what really happened to Ike, Finlay and Vero are forced to come up with a new plan: sleuth out the location of Javi and the Aston Martin, then steal them both back. But when they sneak into the loan shark's suite to search for clues, they find more than they bargained for--Marco's already dead. They don't have a clue who murdered him, only that they themselves have a very convincing motive. Then four members of the police department unexpectedly show up in town, also looking for Ike--and after Finlay's night with hot cop Nick at the police academy, he's a little too eager to keep her close to his side. If Finlay can juggle a jealous ex-husband, two precocious kids, her mother's marital issues, a decomposing loan shark, and find Vero's missing boyfriend, she might get out of Atlantic City in one piece. But will she fold under the pressure and come clean about the things she's done, or be forced to double down?

Finlay Donovan lever et dødlækkert liv … Men det er måske lidt kaotisk. Hun er enlig mor til to, og hun arbejder hårdt på sin forfatterkarriere. Indimellem er det lidt svært at leve op til alle forventningerne: I morges måtte hun sende sin fireårige datter i børnehave med sit hår tapet fast til hovedet efter et uheldigt møde med en saks, og Finlays nye bog er langt fra færdig. Da hun ved et frokostmøde præsenterer sin spændingsroman for sin agent, bliver hun overhørt af en gæst i restauranten, der antager, at Finlay er lejemorder. Straks bliver Finlay hyret til at skaffe en besværlig ægtemand af vejen, og før hun ved af det, har hun fået sig en morderisk sidegesjæft. Men virkelighedens kriminalitet er noget anderledes end den, Finlay beskriver i sine bøger, og inden længe kommer Finlay selv på kant med loven, da hun bliver viklet ind i en mordefterforskning.

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From USA Today bestseller and Edgar Award nominee Elle Cosimano, comes Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun--the hilarious and heart-pounding next installment in the beloved Finlay Donovan series. "Fresh, heartfelt and witty, Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun is a twisty page-turner, and its relatable heroine Finlay Donovan is irresistible " --Janet Evanovich, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Stephanie Plum series Dating. Diapers. And dodging bullets. Who said single moms can't have fun? Finlay Donovan has been in messes before--after all, she's an author and single mom who's a pro at getting out bloodstains for rather unexpected reasons--but none quite like this. She and her nanny/partner-in-crime Vero accidentally destroyed a luxury car that they "borrowed" in the process of saving Finlay's ex-husband. The Russian mob handled her debt, but that means Finlay now owes them. Still running the show from behind bars, mob boss Feliks has a task for Finlay: find a contract killer before the cops do. Problem is, the killer might be an officer. Luckily, hot cop Nick has started up a citizen's police academy, so Finlay has the perfect cover-up to sleuth out the real criminal as she does some "research" for her new novel. Nick is more than happy to get close to Finlay, but he's also getting dangerously close to the truth. As Finlay and Vero dodge potential spies and juggle the daily trials of parenting, they can only hope they find the crooked cop before Feliks catches up with them--not to mention revealing Vero's mysterious past, Nick's growing interest in Finlay, and the threat of her looming book deadline.
