Lügen Männer wirklich häufiger als Frauen? Natürlich! Aber warum? Kaufen Frauen Schuhe, weil sie neue brauchen? Oder weil sie emotional „Dampf" ablassen müssen? Und was passiert, wenn die beiden so verschieden geprägten Geschlechter miteinander auskommen wollen? Anhand neuester Erkenntnisse der Verhaltens- und Hirnforschung, gewürzt mit zahlreichen witzigen Beispielen aus der Beziehungskiste, analysieren Allan und Barbara Pease alle Facetten dieser unerklärlichen Liaison zwischen den Geschlechtern.

Vivian Borne—true-crime author, antiques dealer, and ex-sheriff of Serenity, Iowa—is looking forward to meeting her new editor in London. Flying first class, rooms at the Savoy…her long-suffering co-author, daughter Brandy, worries the trip will bankrupt them both, but the alternative—Mother travelling alone—is unthinkable. Brandy’s almost tempted to make her fiancé, Tony—Serenity’s Chief of Police—call Scotland Yard and warn them Vivian’s coming.

Sierra Kane—who has bounced from one foster family to another—faces an uncertain future when she receives an unapplied-for scholarship to Barnard College specifically designed for orphans whose academic records are merely above average. A second unexpected boon comes her way when another recipient of that somewhat mysterious scholarship offers her a part-time courier job. Soon, Sierra is caught up in a whirl of espionage and murder, with a new boyfriend who may or may not be part of a plot, a college mentor with a possible agenda of her own, and an FBI agent who rebuffs Sierra’s plea for help.

Ce-ar fi dacă am putea învăța cum să interpretăm corect limbajul trupului? Ei bine, am influența părerea interlocutorilor despre noi sau despre afacerea pe care le-o propunem, i-am convinge mai ușor să ne devină parteneri, am putea colabora cu ei pe termen lung și... am înregistra încontinuu succese în profesie. Cartea de față explică detaliat limbajul trupului, în contextul modern al afacerilor secolului XXI. Totul începe cu prima impresie (pentru care nu aveți niciodată o a doua șansă). Dar aceasta nu e de ajuns.

When popular podcaster Nicole Chatterton wants an interview for Killers Caught, true-crime author Vivian Borne is overjoyed. Finally, some recognition for the sleuthing skills the septuagenarian antiques dealer and her daughter Brandy have demonstrated, solving countless crimes in their small hometown of Serenity, Iowa! Dolled up and dressed to the nines, Vivian figures the interview is going swimmingly … until Nicole turns the tables, accusing the mother/daughter duo of committing the very crimes they solved. 

Two o’clock in the morning is the perfect time to be asleep. So when long-suffering Brandy Borne is rudely awoken by her eccentric mother, Vivian, and invited on a surreptitious shopping trip, the idea is less than tempting. But if Vivian—Serenity’s true-crime writing, septuagenarian super-sleuth—has a nose for sniffing out antiques, Brandy’s sense of smell is just as good … and trouble’s on the wind. A little light blackmail and one run-in with the police later, and Brandy and Vivian are the ‘proud’ owners of a selection of dead stock.
