Four very diverse women who have been wronged, have come together to create a detective agency: a financial whiz, a computer genius with a pet black widow, an ex-cop, and a manager/cook. Their specialty is to help other women who haven't been able to get results using the usual means.

They often use very creative ways to help these women. Sometimes I found that hard to read. But overall, I loved the book. The four women work great together and are each complex in their own way. I can't wait to read further books to learn more about each of their pasts.

I'm not a spider fan, so some of the discussion of the black widow bothered me, but overall it just added to the story.

I really enjoyed the use of modern technology to solve their cases. Hope there will be lots more of that in future books. I highly recommend this book and look forward to reading Spun Tales.
