Wrongly accused of being a cocaine queen, she has lost her job, her reputation, and--worst of all--custody of her son. Even after the charges are dropped, suspicion lingers. Desperate to get it all back, she takes what she considers the only path open to her: she goes on the hunt for the real drug queen. Unfortunately, the one person she is sure will be able to help her is the one person she wants least to see again: Joe Pratts, her ex-fiancé, a man whose connections to the drug world once ended their relationship. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Trying not to fall again for Joe is just the beginning of Mary's challenges. The drug queen she is targeting is safely ensconced in the suburbs, hiding behind the façade of domestic tranquility. And taking her down means doing something that strikes Mary a little too close to home: she would have to leave the drug queen's young daughter without a mother. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eSweet Mary\u003c\/i\u003e is a gripping, heart-rending story with a noir soul and plenty of surprising twists--an assured debut from a writer with tremendous experience and talent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Liz Balmaseda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1416542973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781416542971\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atria Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/29\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.30w x 0.70d","brand":"Liz Balmaseda","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47579723137279,"sku":"9781416542971","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_22cc3dae-6def-4b35-8636-50f943333081.jpg?v=1763876199","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sweet-mary-liz-balmaseda-9781416542971","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
