Mim Warner's Lost Her Cool (MIRA)

Mim Warner's Lost Her Cool (MIRA)

by Lynn Messina (Author)

Synopsis

So what's cool? Wearing pinstriped shorts to the office? The newest bug-eye sunglasses? Stuff that's white-hot today and history tomorrow? Mim Warner's uncanny ability to spot what's about to be hot has built Pravda, THE happening cool-hunting business, and Meghan, her protegee, hangs on her every word. But overnight, Mim loses the plot, and blithely appears on morning TV, predicting that Slut slogan t-shirts will be all the rage for eight-year-old girls. And if that's not enough, she's also suggesting samurai swords for your little nephews, accordian rock and sniffing snuff (from designer snuff boxes, naturally)! As she makes one disastrous prediction after another, her business partner tries to isolate her, and sets the staff up on a 24/7 Mim-watch. But only Meghan seems to care about what's REALLY going on with Mim. What's with the police scanner in her office? And her visits to crime scenes? Could it all have something to do with Mim's mysteriously absent husband? Can Meghan get to the bottom of Mim's crisis before it's too late? When she does, will she find out that cool isn't all it's cut out to be?
