’A fine mystery...without any moustachioed Belgians’
- Seinfeld
’Robin Hudson is an absolute delight, sexy and smart, tough and yet vulnerable, quirky and yet somehow universal... Nice Girls Finish Last is a wonderful comedy and a completely satisfying mystery’
-Walter Satterthwait
At 37, with one failed marriage and several lousy dates behind her, Robin Hudson is still working on a new attitude - a Positive Mental Attitude! Sure she’s still toiling away in the tabloidesque Special Reports unit at the All News Network for her loathsome boss, Jerry Spurdle, but amidst the rumours of cutbacks she thinks a good attitude might improve her karma. Besides, she’s added to her personal defence system a new weapon - a hot- glue gun with two settings, steam and spray - so what could go wrong?
Then her gynaecologist is murdered and Jerry sends Robin to investigate a link with the S&M sexclub underworld. In the meantime, someone is taking pot-shots at ANN’s male talent. Are the shootings connected to the murder of the doctor? To Robin? Her PMA hanging by a thread, Robin must solve the mystery - or she may never have another date.
