Description Where No One Will See by Felicia Watson
Lucia Scafetti, a Philly private eye, has tried to move out of the shadow of her infamous crime family. She has her own business, her beloved dog Rocco, and she’s starting to date the cute lawyer down the hall. Her life is upended when her notorious hitman father disappears while in search of the diamond and gold coins he stole from his last victim.
Lucia races to unravel the mystery of her father’s disappearance before a crooked and powerful cop beats her to it. Though Lucia’s allies are scanty and her enemies numerous, she tries to resist the questionable help on offer from her Mafiosi family. It looks like Lucia must finally decide on which side of the law she truly belongs, knowing the wrong choice could send her to prison – or an early grave.
Review Where No One Will See by Felicia Watson
Guest Review by Mark
If you are looking for a new mystery to read, ‘Where No One Will See,’ by Felicia Watson might be just the thing that you are looking for.
Set in West Philadelphia in the hot summer of 1995, the novel centers around a kickass heroine named Lucia Scafetti who works as a P.I. Between living in her office and trying to get the word out about her business, Lucia is trying her best to separate herself from her family’s notorious past.
The Scafetti’s are a well-known crime family in Philly, and although Lucia’s father has been safely behind bars for almost two decades, she still has a lot of work to do to keep people from associating her name with his.
Living and working in the basement of her building is not the most glamorous lifestyle, but Lucia gets along well enough, especially after meeting the new tenants of her building, two lawyers who are setting up an office of their own.
One of the lawyers, Hank Narváez, is a handsome, nice guy who takes Lucia out on a date and whom she enjoys spending time with. But there’s a catch. Lucia’s father, Carlo gets unexpectedly released from prison and very shortly afterward, goes missing, leaving Lucia to find out what happened to her father and hopefully find him before everything she loves is put in danger.
Watson’s writing has everything. It’s sharp, punchy and fun. I could tell just from reading this that she has a lot of experience with Italian-American families in her real life, because she nailed the dynamic perfectly!
One thing in particular that appealed to me was the dialog and the quick, rough way that Watson wrote Lucia’s speaking voice. I love to read a main heroine who sounds tough and doesn’t suffer fools. I’d love to read more of this story, and I hope that the author intends to give us more of these characters some time soon!
