Sometimes in life, you just want to yell “Take two!” When a Polar Plunge goes terribly wrong and someone dies in the icy water, former TV detective Joey Darling wants nothing to do with subsequent investigation. But when her picture is found in the dead man’s wallet and witnesses place her as the last person seen with the man, she realizes she’s been cast in a role she never wanted: suspect. Joey makes the dramatic mistake of challenging the killer on camera, and now it’s a race to find the bad guy before he finds her. Danger abounds and suspects are harder to find than the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island. But when Joey finds a connection with this case and the disappearance of her father, she knows there’s no backing out. As hard as Joey tries to be like her super detective alter ego, the more things go wrong. Will Joey figure this one out? Or will her reign of error continue?

My thoughts: First, the disclaimer. "I was provided a free copy of this book. All opinions are my own." That done, REIGN OF ERROR is the second book in Ms. Barritt's newest series, The Worst Detective Ever Mystery Series. I have to admit, she is a really clueless investigator, but I can't say I'd do much better! I have to  love following Joey around and trying to unravel the clues as she learned them... I'm anxious to follow her into the  next book in the series Safety in Blunders to see what happens next!

I love both Jackson - the police detective - and Zane - the fun loving guy who was always up for anything, dangerous or not. 

Ms. Barritt has a very active mind, she comes up with such unique plots and stories that come alive due to them. If you are a fan of cozy mysteries, then you'll want to read Ready to Fumble (first) followed by this book REIGN OF ERROR. Although I think you could read them out of order... I haven't... and the books are tied together (as in continuing). Must read.
