The Detective's Secretary

By Tara J. Stone

Irene Granger is the whip-smart, buttoned-up, and insatiably curious secretary of a deadbeat private detective. When her boss gives up on a case involving a missing trombone player, Irene takes matters into her own hands.

Armed with nothing but a hunch that a notorious gangster is behind the musician's disappearance, Irene goes undercover

Tara J. Stone

Tara started writing fiction when she was in first grade, but she didn't discover the thrill of screenwriting until she studied Communications Media at John Paul the Great Catholic University. Screenplays are her favorite way to tell stories. Tara resides in Colorado, and in 2016, she became a Consecrated Virgin Living in the World in the Diocese of Colorado Springs. In addition to making things up and writing them down, Tara enjoys praying, hiking (definitely not running), going to the symphony (especially movies at the symphony), discovering new craft brews, and spending time with family and friends.
