She can count on her brawny partner Zgouish for assist, but his bad-slogger charm instills fuzzy feelings under her shell... Corruption, murder, steamy sexual tension... Your backyard has never been so interesting! Five fun, mind-blowing police cases featuring the hardboiled snail cops of the GGPD, penned by multi-award winning author Michèle Laframboise.
