Just One Damned Thing After Another

I've had this Series on my TBR pile for some time. From the book's description, I was under the impression it would be a light, humorous, somewhat farcical jolly good read. It is so much more than that. Yes, there is a humorous angle, but there are also deeply, tragic and somewhat "racy" ones too! This book is a rollicking great adventure set in the present with delightful transitions into the past. History is brought to life and plays it's own important role as well. Every time I thought I knew where the story was going, it threw me for another loop. Madeline Maxwell is a fantastic lead, surrounded by the captivating staff of the well imagined St. Mary's organization. I loved everything about the St. Mary's Universe that was so skilfully established in this first entry. I am looking forward to diving further into the series.
