Christmas Crime: A Kat Makris Greek Mafia Novel Kindle Edition

You better not pout, you better not die …


Kat Makris’ time in Greece is up.

She’s been kidnapped, shot, and used as a corpse’s mattress … and that’s on the good days when her grandmother isn’t drugging the cookies. Why stay in Greece when there is no safer place for Kat and her menagerie of unusual pets than her childhood home in Portland, Oregon?

Yes, Kat is quitting Greece and the Greek mob mostly fine-ish. So what if Hipster Burger’s fake mustache is giving her a rash? At least she’s working, right? And there’s a tiny issue with her other new job, but nothing the fire department and Homeland Security can’t fix.

Kat’s biggest problem is that the Greek mob can’t quit Kat—and they’re coming for her just in time for Christmas.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable but sounded like some else

I really lilke the Greek Mafia books and I have read them all. In one of my reviews of an earlier novel in this series, I used the , the name Stephaine Plum. At that time , I said something like Katrina reminded me of Stephanie. Now I have really been disappointed in the PLum books, so I was surprised when I was reading this book began to sound like a Plum novel. Oh it is better than those books, but it was beginning to sound too musch like them. Exploding cars, two handsome men, strange animals, which if you lhave read the Plum books , are standard staples in those stories. I do like Katdrina's gramdmother better thatn Stephanile's. I do hope that this was a fluke and will not happen again. I will be reading and watching.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this series!

Okay, so I don't typically review the books in the Kat Makris (the 's' is important, y'all!) series by Alex A. King. Mainly, this is because I love the books so much and I want to focus on actually enjoying the book. As reviewers, we can be overly critical of the books we read because we want to leave an honest yet sound review. So, here's my review for this series: I absolutely love every single book! The writing style is witty, catchy, and full of modern references that anyone living in today's world will quickly understand. The characters are also well developed and are just as important to the story as the main character. If you are looking for a light but excellent read, any one of these books will do (but you should should read them in order)!

I love these books. I go through a sort of withdrawal missing Kat. I initially struggled with the typos early in the series (they could use some polish) but have found the series to be so much fun I no longer care about that.

Kat is back on the US again trying to regain her former life after the incidents of the last book. Strange things are happening, fires, and things going boom, not to mention the ugly notes. The worst part is that her family is back in Greece, and can't protect her from some feds that want to pin everything or anything on her.

I.d like a Greek dictionary for the Greek words. I enjoyed the books, I’ve read all the Kat Makris books. This last one was a long time coming. Please let me know when the next one is available.
Her friend needs to quit eating so much. Kat could stand a romance with Xander

5.0 out of 5 stars When Greece follows you home.....

Love all the Makris books, it's been great watching Kat develop throughout the series. All the characters are such fun and the books make me snigger on a regular basis. Even though they're larger than life they are so Greek and I can relate them to people I have known (no Greek mob connections, I hasten to add!)

Treat yourself, start at book 1 and get to know Katerina Makris (with a silent s) and the rest of her family.

Now, Alex, get writing the next one or the pantoufla will be flying in your direction!

5.0 out of 5 stars A good book badly printed
Reviewed in Australia on April 11, 2019

I was looking forward to reading a new Kat Makris, but I didn't count on my money buying such an inept printing job. Intermittent missing words, spelling mistakes, etc, really spoiled smooth reading of a good book. If I wanted to get what I paid for - well, I didn't. Excellent rating for the book, poor rating for the print job.
