*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.
Zackary May hires the Parker Girls to find out who’s behind the embezzlement of millions of dollars from his company from an offshore account but when his wife turns up dead, he haddn’t realized she was a Parker Girl. And Parker Girls protect their own.
I have a soft spot for Strangers in Paradise so it’s practically impossible for me to be overly critical of anything in this universe (despite some elements that admittedly have NOT aged well). Exploring what the Parker Girls are up to after the events of the main series is great to experience as a fan and it’s cool to read about. The characters are just as good as in the original and I like the idea of them taking down some smug billionaire who thinks he can do whatever he wants. It’s timely but not pandering or preachy. I would like more in the ending, especially with Cherry and Becky. I would love more about them. Also, if you haven’t read the original series, you will feel lost. 4 out of 5.
