The Big Nap (Mommy Track Mysteries Book 2)

Smart, witty mystery from the author of Bad Mother and Love and Treasure...â€œJuliet Applebaum is smart, fearless, and completely candid about life as a full-time mom with a penchant for part-time detective work.â€â€”Sue Grafton

Ever since her four-month-old son was born, Juliet hasnâ€™t slept for more than fifteen minutes at a stretch. (Has she given birth to some sort of mutant vampire? Sheâ€™s beginning to wonder.) Itâ€™s been ages since she took her three-year-old daughter to the park. (Just one more reason why sheâ€™s a front-runner for the â€œWorst Mother of the Yearâ€ award.) Her workaholic husband is spending way too much time with his perky, oh-so-pretty producing partner. (Julietâ€™s sure her own post-pregnancy pounds are at least partly to blame.) Sheâ€™s started answering the door topless. (Donâ€™t even ask.) And now her sonâ€™s babysitterâ€”a beautiful young Chasidic womanâ€”has vanished.

Juliet canâ€™t help wondering if Fraydle was fleeing something even scarier than herÂ screaming, squalling charge. Like her upcoming arranged marriage, maybe? Itâ€™s certainly possible. Especially since Juliet saw her furtively chatting with a non-Chasidic man shortly before she disappeared. Or perhaps something much more sinister has occurred. Why else would Fraydleâ€™s family be so reluctant to call in the police? To find out the truth, Juliet, with her over-tired kids in tow, will have to travel from her havoc-filled home in Los Angeles to a Chasidic encalve in Brooklyn. In search of answers. In pursuit of justice. And in desperate need of a big, long napâ€¦Â

Ayelet Waldman is the author of Love and Other Impossible Pursuits and other acclaimed works of both fiction and nonfiction, as well as the Mommy-Track Mysteries, including such titles as Nursery Crimes and A Playdate with Death.
