Bernie's dream of becoming a private investigator may finally come true - if only she can solve a thorny missing person case.

When an ornery detective, Cosimo, agrees to take her on as an apprentice, Bernie jumps at the chance. But her instincts quickly clash with his strict "the client's always right" rule. And as her first case spirals into something far worse than she imagined, Bernie must learn fast - or kiss her big dream goodbye.

Fortunately, Bernie's no stranger to solving mysteries - after all, she once played a detective on TV. But her fictional sleuthing didn't come with real-world danger. Now, with her best friends by her side, a comforting tiramisu, and a knack for poking around in places she shouldn't, Bernie just might crack the case - if it doesn't crack her first.

Join Bernie in Book 5 of the Italian-American Cozy Mystery Series as she takes on her new role as a PI-in-training and uncovers a web of secrets that will put more than just her new career in jeopardy.
