The First Faux Pas: A Lora Weaver Mystery

Lora Weaver Mystery Series, Book 1

By: Katy Leen

Narrated by: Vanessa Labrie

A missing deadbeat dad, a French flirt, and a meddling ex. Lora Weaver's new life is about to get bumpy....

Lora Weaver follows romance from New York to Montreal and expects to find a touch of Paris in North America — cobblestone streets, sidewalk cafés, fabulous shopping, and a little joie de vivre [zest for life]. Not dangerous liaisons.

But, when she takes a job at a PI agency owned by a French brother and sister team, her life takes on more twists and turns than a Cirque du Soleil show. Her latest brush with danger kicks off the case of Piedro “Puddles” Bellinni — a deadbeat dad whose disappearance is linked to a dying girl, a socialite about to inherit a fortune, and a would-be thug whose ego ends up nearly as dented as his car. Amid stalkings, shootouts, and kidnappings, Lora must also survive an unexpected house guest — a flirty old friend of her live-in boyfriend Adam.

With a cast of characters that includes Camille Caron — a French PI with sharp boots, an even sharper tongue, and whose confidence and poise come from knowing how to drop a man twice her size — and her brother Laurent, an ex-cop and hockey hottie, The First Faux Pas is more caper-style romp than whodunit mystery.
