{Release Blitz & Book Review}: Riley Thorn and The Corpse In The Closet by Lucy Score

Title: Riley Thorn and the Corpse in the Closet
Author: Lucy Score
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Release Date: July 7, 2021


Summer is heating up for reluctant psychic Riley Thorn and her handsome private investigator boyfriend, Nick Santiago. First, her disapproving grandmother arrives determined to make Riley take her powers seriously or face the wrath of “the Guild.” Then there’s the homicide detective who needs her help figuring out who murdered the well-dressed corpse in the walk-in closet.

Nick’s got his own hands full with a tricky missing person case and his parents who want to know why he didn’t tell them about his live-in girlfriend. Then there’s the fact that he’s still the tiniest bit stressed about Riley almost getting murdered earlier that summer. The last thing he wants is her getting involved in another investigation.

Things go from bad to worse when the body count starts stacking up, the meet-the-parents dinner goes horribly wrong, and their elderly roommate is up to no good…dressed like a mime.

To top it off, Riley is forced to return to Channel 50 on official police business to question her spray-tanned news anchor ex-husband and his new weather girl fiancΓ©e.

The trouble comes to a head when Riley receives a warning from the killer: Back off or she’s next. Someone has to solve these murders before she becomes the next corpse.

Lucy Score is a Diabolical Genius!!
Let's get that declaration that out of the way.
she REALLY is a possessor of literary wizardry. I picture her with her unwashed writer hair standing on end, in standard author uniform of PJs & stained tee, hungry and stressed out, pumping her fingers on keyboard or her frustrated head in her hands.
But what a plethora of facetious words that she has bound in a book. Made me hoot..no howl with laughter most of the time and shaking my head at some.
Fantastic. Extraordinarily Ingenius writing with uncanny precision of humour
Lucy could TEACH a whole semester on writing Rom-com and I'd pay authors to go join and learn this exquisite art that Lucy does so effortlessly.
Did I say Lucy Score is a Diabolical Genius!! 
This book starts as a next in misadventures of a hot dimpled cop and a cooky psychic, both of whom stole my heart. 
But wait for it. The ENTIRE side cast of characters, Esp Mrs Penny and Gabe are fantastic too. And the Freds and Mr Willicot and Blossom and Jasmine and Eleanora had me in stitches.
And there's a dog who eats human food and farts and a spite cow that jumps fences and glitter poops in the angriest neighbours yard.

“You stupid walking hamburger! I’m going to shoot you between the eyes and turn you into a roast!” the woman howled. 

This edition of their escapade involves a serial killer and glitter-bombs.
Hidden behind the words is the gruesome truth of social evils of the present times. 
The Karens. The keyboard warriors. The pissed off entitled snobs. The bullies who demean people.
The dregs of the Internet-landia and the rabbit hole that is Instagram Influencer-ship.
This diverse bracket of self-appointed moral police are now being hunted by the victim named Karma.
Is it just- No!
Is it reverse victimisation- yes!
Would I recommend it in real life - Also NO!!
But reading about it... Hell YEAH!!
Booyah and Atta girl Lucy. Way to highlight the Angry mob mentality in your signature droll and whimsical style..I had so much fun reading it.
I'm now going to read ALL YOUR BOOKS and pm you and nag you and tackle-hug you in Philly!!
I'll be the girl with glitter...Jk...or am I?😈
5 stars for Lucy Score who is a Diabolical Genius
