The Spellman Files: Document #1 (1) (The Spellman Series)

The Spellman Files is the first novel in a winning and hilarious mystery series featuring Isabel â€œIzzyâ€ Spellman (part Nancy Drew, part Dirty Harry) and her highly functioning yet supremely dysfunctional family of private investigators.

Meet Isabel â€œIzzyâ€ Spellman, private investigator. This twenty-eight-year-old may have a checkered past littered with romantic mistakes, excessive drinking, and creative vandalism; she may be addicted to Get Smart reruns and prefer entering homes through windows rather than doorsâ€”but the upshot is sheâ€™s good at her job as a licensed private investigator with her familyâ€™s firm, Spellman Investigations. Invading peopleâ€™s privacy comes naturally to Izzy. In fact, it comes naturally to all the Spellmans. If only they could leave their work at the office. To be a Spellman is to snoop on a Spellman; tail a Spellman; dig up dirt on, blackmail, and wiretap a Spellman.

Izzy walks an indistinguishable line between Spellman family member and Spellman employee. Duties include: completing assignments from the bosses, aka Mom and Dad (preferably without scrutiny); appeasing her chronically perfect lawyer brother (often under duress); setting an example for her fourteen-year-old sister, Rae (whoâ€™s become addicted to â€œrecreational surveillanceâ€); and tracking down her uncle (who randomly disappears on benders dubbed â€œLost Weekendsâ€). But when Izzyâ€™s parents hire Rae to follow her (for the purpose of ascertaining the identity of Izzyâ€™s new boyfriend), Izzy snaps and decides that the only way she will ever be normal is if she gets out of the family business. But thereâ€™s a hitch: she must take one last job before theyâ€™ll let her goâ€”a fifteen-year-old, ice-cold missing person case. She accepts, only to experience a disappearance far closer to home, which becomes the most important case of her life.
