About this product

Product Information

While her friends are making mad cash and getting massages at their dot-com jobs, Amy Gray quits her low-status publishing position to realize her girlhood dream of being a private investigator. Joining a small Manhattan agency, she finds herself plunged into an intriguing world of "con men, lunatics, narcissists, polygamists, sociopaths, felons, petty thieves, and pathological liars"-a description almost as apt for the men in her social life as for her on-the-job subjects. Working with a gang of misfit colleagues (a former zookeeper, a one-time child star, an avant-garde philosopher, and other eccentrics), Amy discovers even more about herself as she detects uncanny parallels between her investigations and her tumultuous love life.

Reviews
"Amy Gray'sSpygirlis a 'girl meets city' love story, a must-read for all the overeducated youth who believe if they can make it there, etc. Amy is a real modern-day heroine, willing to take risks in both her personal and professional life, to put up with the rats she finds both in her office as a private investigator and in the New York City bar scene. You'll find yourself rooting for her on every page." -Kathryn Larrabee, author ofAn Everyday Savior "Flawlessly weaving reminiscences of childhood, college days at Brown and the low-paying job as a publishing 'slave' she left for her new but decidedly unglamorous career as an agent, Gray's debut hilariously chronicles a roller-coaster love and social life amid the uncertainty of a new millennium." -Publishers Weekly "Either Amy Gray has had an extraordinary life, or she has an extraordinary imagination. She reveals the slightly sordid life of a contemporary sleuth; she gets under the skin of the dating game; and she nails office politics.Spygirlis cool and it packs a punch." -Rebecca Campbell, author ofSlave to Fashion "A funny, clever, deftly-written romp through the world of a real-life Charlie's angel." -Molly Jong-Fast, author ofNormal Girl From the Trade Paperback edition., "Amy Gray'sSpygirlis a 'girl meets city' love story, a must-read for all the overeducated youth who believe if they can make it there, etc. Amy is a real modern-day heroine, willing to take risks in both her personal and professional life, to put up with the rats she finds both in her office as a private investigator and in the New York City bar scene.
