Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun cover

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

'Finlay Donovan is irresistible!' JANET EVANOVICH

Finlay Donovan is ready to bite the bullet. She's done with her accidental life of crime.
But first, there's the small matter of her debt to the Russian mob.

Her task should be simple: locate a rogue hitman before the cops do. The catch? This killer might be a cop himself.

From inside the citizens' police academy, run by distractingly hot Detective Nicholas Anthony, Finlay needs to sleuth out her target - and some fresh ideas for her new crime novel.

Can she get to her edits and the hitman in time?
She'll give it her best shot.

With more dating, diapers and dodging bullets, the third book in the hilarious, irresistibly lovable Finlay Donovan series is perfect for fans of Dial A for Aunties, Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series, and TV shows like Only Murders in the Building, Killing Eve and Dead to Me.
