Freya returns to Wellington to restore her inheritance, ‘Portobello’, an Art Deco building in Petone, to her former glory. Only to find dubious dealings with various Snakes in Suits, Lawyers, Bankers, the Council and an unscrupulous property developer who will stop at nothing, even murder, to get what he wants – ‘Portobello’.
Freya fights back with the help of her childhood friend Zac – who just happens to be drop dead gorgeous, and Simon her cute Bank manager who is also competing for her attention.
Reuniting with her besties Sven and Clara, together they navigate their chaotic lives, a massive earthquake and help each other to find love and to solve the murders that plague them.
Following on from sexy in the city’s ‘Sharks with Lipstick’ to slippery slimy shysters ‘Snakes in Suits’. Same time, same city, and some of the same similar characters, it’s all happening Downunder in little old New Zealand’s capital city, Wellington aka Wellywood.
The three besties Sven, Freya and Flat White are brewing up a storm in their chaotic hectic lives of the 21st century. This time the story centres round Freya, the so called flaky, fey one. Freya’s beloved grand-father Wolfe Nilson much to the shock of the family leaves Freya his prized Art Deco gorgeous building ‘Portobello’. She is the only one he trusts to bring her back to her former beauty.
Freya has plans but has to fight against the local property developer, banks, council you name it if she wants to make her and grand-father Wolfe’s dreams come true. With a lot of determination, not to mention melt downs will she with the help of her childhood friend, Zac who just happens to be drop dead gorgeous and an Engineer, be able to pull it off?
As in the first book of the Trinity Trilogy Series, there is a murder and an earthquake to deal with as well as the underhand bureaucrats: Snakes in Suits.
If you want a good laugh plus a murder mystery to solve, then this is the read for you, whether it be on your commute into work, or a summer read…
