Reviews
“Loretta Plansky—and Spencer Quinn—are more charming and clever than they have any right to be. In Mrs. Plansky Goes Rogue, our resident seventy-one-year old with an artificial hip is up against love, villainy, and exploding yachts. Quinn’s writing is Mercedes-smooth, carrying us through another caper with verve and delight.” —Gregg Hurwitz, New York Times bestselling author
“In her second adventure, Quinn’s heroine brings the same charm, humor, and sturdy constitution that readers enjoyed from book one. Mrs. Plansky uses others’ perceptions of older people to her detecting advantage to find answers. Fans of Only Murders in the Building, Richard Osman’s “Thursday Murder Club” series, and senior detectives in general will love Loretta and wish for many more adventures.”—Library Journal (starred review)
Praise for Mrs. Plansky’s Revenge:
“I absolutely adored this book. Really fun but with a few teeth, as well. Mrs. Plansky is a terrific character. The story ticks along like a good watch.” —Stephen King
“Mrs. Plansky’s Revenge is a triumph that pits an original, memorable, and deeply human protagonist against a plausible threat, then takes us on an unexpected, thrilling, and satisfying journey. Heartfelt, thoughtful, and always suspenseful.”—Michael Koryta, New York Times bestselling author of An Honest Man
“Mrs. Plansky is a wonderfully memorable heroine, full of wit and equally plausible as an ace tennis player and a motorcycle-driving detective with Romanian gangsters hot on her tail. Readers will be eager to see what Mrs. Plansky gets up to next.”—Publishers Weekly
“Quinn’s briskly plotted nail-biter takes unexpected twists and turns that are nicely balanced by Mrs. Plansky’s memories of her husband… Her age never becomes a detriment. Rather, she works it to her advantage, employing great ingenuity to solve a crime that elevates her into an immensely likable, wholly appealing heroine.” —Shelf Awareness (starred review)
“There’s a lot of derring-do and old-fashioned hugger-mugger. I… love Mrs. Plansky.” –Globe & Mail
