Buried Leads (An Avery Shaw Mystery Book 3)

Journalists are supposed to report the news, not be it. For Avery Shaw, though, that's easier said than done.
Avery has spent the last month on her boss' list -- you know the one -- and she can't figure out a way to get off it. When a missing person's case involving a wealthy mother in the northern suburbs surfaces, Avery figures the best way to get back in his good graces is break the story of the year.
There's just a few problems standing in her way. First off, she's being stalked online -- and it's starting to make her life difficult. She's also decided to actually start dating the hot pawnshop owner, Eliot, who saved her life a few weeks back. That sounds good in theory, but she's constantly crossing paths with her ex-boyfriend and that tends to make things uncomfortable (to say the least).
When you compound that with the fact that this missing persons case is more than it appears -- and the office tool has been assigned to the story with her -- Avery manages to get in over her head. Again.
Avery is sure that she can work things out to her advantage -- as long as she doesn't die in the pursuit of yet another story in which she manages to get personally involved.

Note: These characters are sarcastic and snarky -- and they do tend to swear when things get out of hand. Read only if you want a good laugh -- and you aren't easily offended. This is the third book in the Avery Shaw Mystery series.
