The Astonishing Mistakes of Dahlia Moss by Max Wirestone EPUB
Veronica Mars meets the World of Warcraft in The Astonishing Mistakes of Dahlia Moss, a mystery romp with a most unexpected heroine.
You'd think that after I took a bullet in my arm following my last case, I'd be timid about going in guns blazing a second time. But you'd be wrong. I faced down death, and the only bad thing that happened was that I got a cool scar. Which is a like a tattoo but with street cred.
I may have been a little overconfident this time. And that may have seriously clouded my judgment. Some small but confidently made mistakes include:
Unwisely meeting up with an Internet stalker in real life
Eating a large breakfast before discovering a corpse
Kidnapping
Standing uncomfortably close to the edge of a steamboat while musing that nothing bad could possibly happen
Kidnapping, again
That's the thing about a sense of invulnerability - you usually get it right before things go terribly, terribly wrong.
