Daisy Wong: The Hell of the Sitting Ducks

Rate this book
Lt. Daisy Wong, Space Marshal, investigates a man who plays the lottery. A lot. No big deal, but he wins impossibly large amounts of money, consistently, defying the odds. He also loses from time to time, but only to throw the authorities and the criminal element off his trail. Thanks to her poking around, Daisy finds herself plunged into a mob money-laundering scheme, murder, and the Hell of the Sitting Ducks. This epub also contain a sample of the exciting and provocative contemporary mystery novel The View that Disappeared. When octogenarians Jack and Betty Luckner move into a high-rise retirement center, they expect to make certain adjustments. An efficiency kitchen. A one-star dining room. They do not expect their fellow residents to start dropping dead at the dinner table. Armed with only an iron-willed sense of justice, Jack and Betty set out to track down the serial killer . . . before anyone can put a stop to their efforts. Drawing on the traditions of Dashiell Hammett and Monty Python, The View that Disappeared serves up a five-star collation of inventive murders, gallows humor, and courage.

A good plot but at only 46% of the page count it is extremely short and it sort of leaves the matter unresolved.
When the probability expert cones to her for help, Daisy is shocked. The woman's husband has figured out that the lottery is fixed and that he can win. He has tested out his theory several times and has won enough to draw attention resulting in his dead body. Now Daisy follows the dame route, having figured out that this is the work of the tongs. However when an assassin comes for her she proves that her past is more than a match. What will he tell her? Who had the woman's husband killed and now wants her dead?
