Fixed: A Gin & Tonic Mystery, written by L. A. Kornetsky

Welcome to the delightful universe of Fixed: A Gin & Tonic Mystery, where gin cocktails aren't the only things shaken up-so are the lives of its characters! Get ready for a blend of humor, mystery, and more gin than your local bar could handle.

Our story revolves around the protagonist, a quirky and not-so-perfect bartender named Cynthia. Picture this: she has a knack for mixing drinks and a talent for finding herself in murky waters-literally and metaphorically. When she's thrust into the role of amateur sleuth, the hunt for a missing person becomes a cocktail of chaos and calamity. It's the classic case of "can the bartender actually solve a mystery without getting herself into a heap of trouble?" Spoiler alert: she can, but only after a couple of gin and tonics!

Now, we can't forget about Maggie, Cynthia's best friend, who is the perfect partner-in-crime (or at least in sleuthing). Together, they make quite the team, shaking down suspects as they attempt to unravel a mystery involving a missing club member. Yes, that's right-while you expect them to be pouring drinks, they're actually cooking up trouble!

As the plot thickens, so do the layers of deception. With each turn of events, you realize that nothing is quite as it seems. There are secret societies, back-alley dealings, and a cast of eccentric characters that make you wonder if this is a mystery novel or a sitcom gone wild. I mean, who needs reality TV when you have a gin-loving bartender trying to juggle her personal life with her sudden detective skills?

Throughout the book, the author, L. A. Kornetsky, sprinkles her narrative with humor that'll make you chuckle and eye-roll in equal measures. Who knew investigating could involve so much sarcasm and, let's not forget, a generous measure of gin? Each chapter is a new twist that keeps you guessing-and if you think it's about to get predictable, think again!

And here's the kicker-there's a big reveal toward the end that will have you either clapping your hands in delight or slapping your forehead in disbelief. We won't spoil it for you, but let's just say you might want to pour yourself another drink before you read it.

In short, Fixed is more than just a title; it's a testament to the chaos of life where friendships are tested, truths are revealed, and laughter is the best accompaniment to a good mystery. So, if you're after a light-hearted whodunit that's about as smooth as a well-mixed gin and tonic, grab your favorite drink and dive into this literary cocktail of fun! Cheers!
