Judy's Staff Pick:
The Spellman Files  
  
the spellman files Judy Becker
 The Spellman Files by Lisa Lutz is the first novel in a hilarious series featuring the Spellman family in all its lovable chaos.  Part Nancy Drew, part Dirty Harry, part Stephanie Plum, Isabel "Izzy" Spellman is a 28-year-old PI whose duties include completing assignments from her "bosses."  Izzy has a checkered past littered with romantic mistakes, excessive drinking, and creative vandalism, making her indispensable in the family business of Spellman Investigations. 

Judy's staff pick is located in adult fiction (FICTION LUTZ) and audio books (CDBOOK LUTZ)
