About the Book

As a former Boston cop, Carlotta Carlyle thought she had seen it all--but that was before she became a private eye . . . Six-foot-tall, redheaded ex-cop and Boston-based private eye Carlotta Carlyle is "the genuine article: a straightforward, funny, thoroughly American mystery heroine" (New York Post). A Trouble of Fools: Recently fired from the Beantown police force for insubordination, the part-time taxi driver lands her first case as a private eye. Searching for a missing Irish cabbie leads her into a nefarious scheme that puts her at odds with the FBI and a Mafia-connected former lover, in this award-winning debut. The Snake Tattoo: A London Times outstanding book of the year, Carlotta Carlyle's former boss, Lieutenant Mooney, gets into a scrap with a stranger in a bar. When the stranger winds up comatose, Mooney is suspended, and he needs Carlotta to find the one woman who can exonerate him: a blond hooker with a snake tattoo. Coyote: An illegal immigrant is mistakenly pronounced dead when her ID card is found on the body of a murdered woman near Fenway Park. Now she needs Carlotta to get her ID--and her life--back. But this wasn't an isolated crime. A murderer is targeting Boston's immigrant community . . . and could easily add Carlotta to the kill list. Steel Guitar: Carlotta is shocked to see blues superstar Dee Willis climb into her cab. They were friends in college--until Dee ran off with Carlotta's husband. Now, Dee's in town playing a concert and wants Carlotta's help tracking down a mutual friend. But when a blackmail plot is uncovered and a corpse is found in Dee's hotel room, Carlotta will have to work fast to keep Dee from becoming another casualty of the blues.

Review :
Praise for A Trouble of Fools "Barnes uses all of her finely honed technique to deliver an exciting book." --Library Journal "All elements are skillfully woven together in a book that has just about everything." --The Denver Post Praise for The Snake Tattoo "The most refreshing, creative female character to hit mystery fiction since Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone." --People "One of the most sparkling and irresistible heroines ever to grace the pages of a whodunit." --Chicago Sun-Times "A genuine article: a straightforward, funny, thoroughly American mystery heroine." --New York Post Praise for Coyote "The third and best Barnes novel to feature Carlyle . . . Every step of the way, the writing is solid, the plot has a basketful of red herrings, and the characters are all thought out and finely tuned." --People "A daunting puzzle . . . [Barnes's] indomitable but always human heroine . . . and an unflagging pace make this one a must!" --Kirkus Reviews Praise for Steel Guitar "Cleverly plotted and zestfully related . . . A characteristically gripping tale, packed with taut, energy-charged images." --Publishers Weekly "Carlotta--tall, vivacious, sensitive--unravels all the knots with breathtaking verve, leaving the reader grasping for more. Super." --Library Journal
