Nadia has to start over. But will characters from her past—and the dead body at the beach house—let her?

From accomplished author Jonita Davis comes a witty and vivid murder mystery, Carrying On. A perfect match for fans of the Stephanie Plum novels and Dial A for Aunties (winner of the Comedy Women In Print prize 2021), this book packs a punch!

Nadia sits, tied to a chair, watching curiously as three so-called “gangsters” fret about a ferret. The only thing she can think about at the moment is her life before all of this. At what point did it all go wrong?

Well, to understand that, we have to take a trip that started a few weeks and 600 miles back.

Before the darned pink Caddy showed up.

Before the seriously sexy paramedic rescued her.

Before a respected local politician was accused of a heinous crime.

We have to start on the day when Nadia went about her business, thinking that she had life all put together.

She did, until it broke.

“Jonita’s witty and comedic Carrying On is also an exciting and thrilling mystery that I couldn’t put down. The story will have you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end.” — Danny Strong (Emmy Award winning Writer, Actor, Director, Producer)

“Nadia’s humor and voice are striking, and practically alive on the page. From the very first word, you’re rooting for her every step of the way.” — Alicia Sparrow (Acquisitions Editor, Chicago Review Press, Lawrence Hill Books)
