So Much Bull: A Penny Post Myth Agent Novel - Penny Post Myth Agent Alex a King

Mythology won't be the same now that Penny Post is on the job.




Growing up as a Greek-American kid in Salem, Oregon, Penny Post is used to being yanked in all directions. Her life of not being quite good enough has left her recently divorced and on the hook for cat support; but there's still oodles of sass and can-do attitude left to drag herself home for cake after her hairstyling gig ends in a blazing bonfire. (She did warn her client that hairspray and cigarettes don't mix; she even jabbed her brush at the No Smoking sign.)




Good news: Her Greek grandmother has a lead on a new job.




Bad news: She'll be rubbing elbows with her first love, Luke Remis, the man who vanished for six months before reentering her life with a wicked tan, a snake tattoo, and an excessive amount of audacity.




More good news: The money means her mommy's boy ex won't be calling her a loser for late cat support payments.





Weird news: Her new boss is a nameless disembodied voice; an alarming number of business owners in Salem aren't fully human; Greek mythology is real; a complex treaty keeps the worlds separate; and there's a minotaur rampaging around the city, scoffing people like chips.




Penny's position as a myth agent for the Labyrinth Agency means she'll be hunting for Luke Remis (missing myth agent and Penny's former squeeze), who was last seen pursuing the runaway minotaur. Should be a basic wellness check for the fledgling agent-until the minotaur is assassinated and suddenly Luke is on the hook for its murder. Penny's simple assignment quickly gets a whole lot more complicated when her new orders involve apprehending Luke before the treaty between worlds disintegrates.




This new laugh-out-loud mystery series is for readers who enjoy witty banter, kooky families, and clashing cultures. SO MUCH BULL comes smothered in tzatziki sauce and served with Pacific Northwestern IPA.
