Pink Lady (Jack Daniels Book 23) Kindle Edition
When Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels still worked for Homicide in the Chicago Police Department, she had an adversary who became the most evil, and most formidable, villain she'd ever met.
Alex Kork. A serial killer of extraordinary brilliance and cruelty.
Jack was 100% sure that Alex was gone forever.
But you can never be 100% sure about anything. Life is full of surprises.
Death is also full of surprises.
And death is coming.
PINK LADY by J.A. Konrath

From the Inside Flap
Q: Did you always want to be a writer?
Joe: No. I wanted to be a model for husky pants. But then, when I was barely a teen, they stopped making husky sizes.
Damn those clothing designers for shattering my dreams.
Q: When did you decide to become a writer?
Joe: I mean, I'm not offended by the term "husky." Now they're called "relaxed fit" jeans. It's the same thing, but there's nothing sexy about being a "relaxed fit jeans" model. Husky sounds like you're owning those extra pounds, making them work for you. Relaxed fit sounds like you eat too much and are just plain lazy.
What was your question again? Ideas? I hunt through James Patterson's garbage, and steal what he tossed. When Patterson throws out ten pages, that's like fifty chapters.
Ha ha ha! Get it? Because his chapters are so short! I swear, the last Patterson book I read had more chapters than page numbers.
Actually, I just watch old Outer Limits episodes and appropriate the plots, like Alan Moore did with Watchmen.
Q: Who do you like to read?
Blake Crouch, Ann Voss Peterson, Jeff Strand, Henry Perez, F. Paul Wilson, Tom Schreck. Pretty much anyone I collaborate with. Because here's a dirty little secret: when you co-write a book with someone, you kind of have to read the stuff they wrote.
My absolute favorite author is Dr. Seuss. In fact, I tried my hand at writing a few Dr. Seuss-style children's books. Here are the titles:
HOW THE GRINCH STOLE MY WIFE
HORTON HATCHES A TERRORIST PLOT
ON BEYOND DONKEY PUNCH
MARVIN K MOONEY WILL YOU PLEASE DROP DEAD
THE CAT IN THE HAT GETS NEUTERED
GREEN EGGS AND E COLI
THIDWICK THE BIG HEARTED COKE DEALER
MR. BROWN CAN MOO, AND THEY PUT HIM AWAY
THERE'S A WOCKET IN MY POCKET, AND I BLAME CIALIS
BOOMER THE TUMOR
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to sell any of these. I think it may be some sort of rights-issue thing.
Q: What's a work day in the life of Joe Konrath like?
Joe: I wake up early and make some eggs.
Then the smoke alarm goes off, because the eggs are burning because I fell asleep again.
Then I spend ten minutes explaining to the firemen that show up how I'll be more careful next time.
I go back to bed, and the next thing I know, it's around noon. Time for lunch. I want to make an egg sandwich, but I'm out of eggs. And bread. And pretty much everything except some sort of fruit that's been in the refrigerator forever and might be a lime. Or not. It may not even be fruit. So I put it back and think about cooking some pasta but that seems like a lot of work for just lunch, so I go take a nap.
Around three I get up, ready to start my work day, but first I need to eat something. Do pizza places deliver at three? I make a few calls. Nope, no one delivers before five.
I check the fridge. The lime thing is still there, but it looks like it moved from where I saw it last. How odd. Did it move by itself? I'm really hungry, so I decide to give it a try.
It's not a lime, because limes don't have bones.
When I finish eating, I sit down at my computer and write my daily quota, thirty pages.
Q: What's next for Joe Konrath?
Joe:This Spring, Carson's will be releasing my signature scent, called Nocturnal Emission. Available in parfum, eau du toilet, cologne, and roll on. I like the roll on. It tickles my armpits. My goal is to make enough money to buy Nebraska. Then I'll rename it Joebraska, and invite all of my friends to visit. We're going to have a big party in the state capital, Joemaha. You can come, if you want.
Q: Do you want to talk at all about your books?
Joe: Nope. Not really.

About the author

Joe Konrath has written over twenty novels in the Lt. Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels thriller series. They do not have to be read chronologically to be enjoyed, but the order is: Whiskey Sour, Bloody Mary, Rusty Nail, Dirty Martini, Shot of Tequila, Fuzzy Navel, Cherry Bomb, Dead On My Feet, Serial Killers Uncut (with Blake Crouch), Shaken, Stirred (with Blake Crouch), Dying Breath, Everybody Dies, Rum Runner, Last Call, White Russian, Shot Girl, Chaser, Old Fashioned, Bite Force, and Witch Brew. More coming soon.
Wow, that's a lot of Jack.
If you like your thrillers on the dark side, check out the Konrath Dark Thriller Collective, which includes the books The List, Origin, Afraid, Trapped, Endurance, Haunted House, Webcam, Disturb, What Happened To Lori, The Nine, Second Coming, and Close Your Eyes.
Joe also wrote the Stop A Murder mystery puzzle series, where you become the sleuth and solve brain teasers to try and catch a killer.
He also wrote the sci-fi trilogy, Timecaster, Timecaster Supersymmetry, and Timecaster Steampunk. Even if you don't think you like sci-fi, give them a try. They feature Joe's well-known characters from his other series, and are insane.
With Ann Voss Peterson he wrote the Codename: Chandler thrillers, including Flee, Spree, Three, Hit, Exposed, Naughty, Fix (with F. Paul Wilson), Rescue, and Free.
And, finally, he writes erotica under the pen name Melinda DuChamp, also with Ann Voss Peterson. Those books are probably too spicy for you, so only the brave and bold should seek them out.
Joe writes a lot. You should probably read everything.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2025Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI've been a JAK reader for years and this is one of his best! It not only was LOL funny at times but also had some seriously creepy 80's Thomas Harris vibes. Also excellent if you like poetry. /s 5-stars.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2025Format: KindleVerified PurchaseIt was very typical J.A. Konrath. Some of the storyline was a bit over the top when it came to even remotely being believable. It was a good read and held me in suspense as to how the day would be saved in the end.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2025Format: KindleVerified PurchaseLove it! J. A. Konrath I love every single one of your books…..I used to hate reading because I’d want to go to sleep!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2024Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThe gang is back. Even the dead ones. Lots of links to books I now want to go back and read. (Mu and Bub are thankfully absent.
Sam, Phin and Jackʼs precocious daughter, takes the lead. Harry Jr. is happily absent. No, there he is. Sigh.
In a very weird turn of events, Jack decides to bake cookies. Even Duffy won't eat them.
This feels like the end.
PSYCH!! Cliffhanger.
This is a keeper.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2025Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThis book has all the characters you would expect along with several that are a real surprise. Lots of suspense and near death experiences with a surprise ending.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2024Format: KindleVerified PurchaseKonrath can write a good story. I laughed out loud, sat on the edge of my seat, and held my breath. But at some point it gets repetitive. Create some new characters. Find a new horror. There are so many available to choose from. I have like Jack Daniels for 23 books, and Harry and Phin. But it’s time for someone else.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2024Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI'm so sad it's over already....you really write much too well because the story flowed perfectly. I absolutely hate that I have to wait AGAIN for the next one...
