Recently I asked the author about what she was reading. Her reply:
Just finished reading Pork Chops of Death, a wonderfully funny comedy mystery by former Simpsons writer and producer Frank Mula. Mula has come up with a very appealing protagonist in his P.I. Zolly Michelangelo, who plies his trade while munching zeppoles on the Jersey shore. The plot zips along with lots of laughs on every page. As a former sitcom writer, I really appreciated those laughs. They’re not easy to write, and Mula does it with great skill.
