Description

Roxy Abruzzo stays one step in front of difficulty----particularly now that her income is significantly less than outstanding, and she's "doing favors" for her slick uncle Carmine, one of the final old time Mafia employers in Pittsburgh.With her partner, Nooch, and her thieving pit-bull, Rooney, Roxy hustles the mean streets collecting obligations for Uncle Carmine and maintaining his clients in line. With her child's educational costs to cover, Roxy could almost persuade himself that the questionable careers are lawful. Nevertheless when Carmine's consigliere provides Roxy an agreement to kidnap somebody, that's a point she won’t cross.Trouble may be the kidnapping occurs anyhow, and once the target appears murdered, Roxy’s number 1 about the authorities hit march. To safeguard himself, she investigates and quickly discovers the target had a large solution---or two. Put in a rock vocalist with a penchant for dinosaur bones and throw-in a pesky paleontologist, plus an ex-nun with a mustache issue---as well as an attractive cook with a flavor for whichever Roxy meals up---and you have a caper saturated in cool characters and laugh-out-loud mayhem.Peppered as typical with Nancy Martin’s pointed one-liners, Sticky Hands---the 2nd Roxy Abruzzo secret---is even tastier compared to first.
