New Jersey P.I. Billie Levine finds herself at the forefront of a new crime adventure... perfect for fans of Veronica Mars and Serial.

Unlicensed P.I. Billie Levine is trying to bank some extra cash, so she picks up hours working as a process server for another investigative firm. Mindless and mostly 9 to 5, Billie is content to simply hand over court documents until during a routine stakeout, she stumbles upon the corpse of an elderly man, an art collector with ties to Nazi Germany.

Compared to Billie, the dead man has it easy. Billie is feeling on edge lately. Maybe it's because her father is insisting his estranged kids come to his wedding in Sedona, or that David is making plans to move out, or that a smug teaching assistant is getting underfoot on her latest case.

Although, it's possible she could use the help when the cops zero in on Billie's boyfriend, Aaron, and his connections to an international art ring. Turns out, Aaron's stint abroad has left him with more than just a thick scar across his neck. The woman he screwed over wants revenge, and she's determined to leverage Billie's murder case to get it.

With the detectives focused on Aaron, Billie sets her sights on stopping a killer who is tying up loose ends - Billie being one of them.

Reviews for Devil in Profile: A Billie Levine Mystery

“Razor-tongued and whip-smart, Kimberly G. Giarratano’s PI captivates in the second installment of the Billie Levine series. In Devil in Profile, Billie gets tangled in a case pulled straight from the zeitgeist. The plot is a matryoshka of love, betrayal, and murder that Billie peels open, her need for answers at odds with her loyalty to those she loves, proving that this series has serious staying power. I would follow Billie Levine anywhere.” – Katrina Monroe, author Graveyard of Lost Children “If you enjoyed Kimberly Giarratano’s adult debut, Death of a Dancing Queen, you’re going to love her second book in the Billie Levine series, Devil in Profile. Giarratano does a masterful job of introducing us to Billie’s quirky family and then leads us on a roller coaster ride of twists and turns worthy of a Jersey Shore boardwalk ride... Count me amongst Billie Levine’s biggest fans. This is a must read!” – Robyn Gigl, critically acclaimed author of Survivor’s Guilt, a TIME Magazine’s 100 Best Mystery & Thriller Books of All Time
