Real life is nothing like TV.
Joey Darling, actress and
detective by default, is reminded of this point daily. If only problems could
be solved in sixty minutes, complete with commercial breaks, closing credits,
and a catchy theme song.
Joey accompanies Detective Jackson
Sullivan to a crime scene, only to discover she knows the victim. After a
friend is accused of murder, Joey can't refuse her help--however bumbling it
might be. Unfortunately, she only seems to dig up more questions instead of
desperately needed answers.
When a misguided fan offers clue,
Joey discovers something much deeper than a single crime. But can she sort
through all the various story lines to get to the truth? Or will one blooper
after another put not only the investigation in jeopardy but her life as well?

My Thoughts:
Blooper Freak is
the fifth installment in the Joey Darling's The Worst Detective Ever Mystery
series by Christy Barritt. With mystery and romance, the story centers around a
dead body found buried in the sand. Joey continues to use her detective skills
from Raven Remington to solve this mystery. With a trail of clues and
interviews, Joey is on the way to solving the mystery. But this time around, a
friend is accused of being the murderer, so Joey is more determined to clear
her friend's name. The romance between Joey and Detective Jackson Sullivan
heats up a little more with this installment. Not too cliché romance novel
romance, but a romance which grows with respect and admiration as Jackson and
Joey learn to trust and learn more about each other. The plot moves quickly as
Joey and Jackson work as a team to solve the mystery. I finished the book in a
couple of hours, flying through the pages. Overall, Blooper Freak is another wonderful installment in this series. I
can't wait to read more of Christy Barritt's writing.
I received a complimentary copy of Blooper Freak from Christy Barritt, but the opinions stated are all
my own.
My Rating:
4 out of 5 stars
