title: Most Wanted: A Novel of Suspense
author:  Michele Martinez 
description: An edgy New York setting, a sexy and smart Latina federal prosecutor, and a blue-eyed, hard-abbed FBI agent get this debut mystery off to a fast start. Gorgeous Melanie Vargas, the prosecutor, is raising a six-month-old daughter while dealing with a cheating husband and a killer job. When Jed Benson, a prominent New York citizen, is found tortured and murdered in his posh townhouse, Melanie grabs the case and won't let go. Proving herself to her hard-nosed boss, Bernadette, isn't Melanie's only hurdle--she must also deal with a growing attraction to Dan O'Reilly, the FBI agent (he of the hard abs) assigned to the Benson murder. The plot turns predictable early on, but the characters, especially lovable Melanie, will hold most readers' interest. Fans of Mary Higgins Clark, in particular, will devour this tasty trifle. <i>Jenny McLarin</i><br /><i>Copyright  American Library Association. All rights reserved</i>
