2 in 1: Meet Sue Kowalski, a Kansas City suburb homicide detective. Recently divorced, Sue holds her own in the all-male force; they call her "Baby Shoes", which doesn't make her happy. As the smallest and most agile, Sue has been hefted up, lowered down, and scrunched into places no woman should enter. She craves good bear-claw pastry, coffee, and Jose Morales, a co-worker. Her chances for the first two are good.
Sue is at her best in Death by Coupon and Death by Salsa Dancing short stories.
