    In Sims's entertaining second Rita Farmer misadventure (after 2008's The Actress), Rita, a struggling single mom, is taking bit acting roles to help pay for law school. On break from a location film shoot, Rita, costumed as a police officer, manages to scare off a pair of muggers attacking a black boy, who turns out to be the grandson of Amaryllis B. Cubitt, the well-respected founder of an ambitious homeless mission in South Central Los Angeles. When a Rita-look-alike cop is gunned down soon after, Rita suspects there's something sinister going on at the mission. The action builds to a satisfying conclusion. Appealing characters, amusing subplots and the steamy L.A. setting are a plus.

      In person, Sims is as funny as Sedaris, and if you're a mystery buff you'll discover a fantastic new series! If you're a writer, you can get some tips on writing your book, too!
