About this audiobook
When Wollie reports the disappearance to the Los Angeles Police Department, however, the detective assigned to the case seems more interested in dating Wollie than in finding her friend. So Wollie springs into action-and lands right in the middle of an FBI investigation into an international drug cartel. She soon finds herself being stalked by an assortment of threatening characters, including her fellow television contestants, who will stop at nothing to beat the clock.
With Dating Is Murder, Kozak delivers another sparkling treasure, a laugh-out-loud funny, literate mystery for readers of Janet Evanovich and Sue Grafton, and for Kozak's own growing legion of fans.
From the Hardcover edition.

48 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Another fun romp of a whodunnit!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5One of the best mysteries I read in 2007. Wollie Shelley, a greeting-card designer who supports her schizophrenic brother, is trying to make money and get health insurance by participating in a reality=tv show involving dating. She's also trying to finish college and so when her math tutor, a German au pair, disappears, she's highly motivated to find her. Hijinks, as well as murders, ensue. Set in LA, and you can tell the author (who was in the movie Parenthood and others) knows whereof she writes.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Wollie Shelly is trying to suppliment her income from designing greeting cards by participating in a reality series called Biological Clock. While working on the series she meets and becomes friends with Annika, an au pair from Germany. When Annika disappears, Wollie can not help but look for her. When she starts getting warnings to mind her own business, she still can not stop. Then when Annika's boyfriend also goes missing, Wollie becomes even more involved. She and her friends try to solve the puzzle and end up causing more trouble than helping. I enjoyed this book. It is entertaining and I think Kozak's timing is getting better. I can not help but like Wollie, who is so caring about everyone else that she continues to put herself in harms way.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Checked this book out @ the library and read it in a few days. I loved it. It's the sequel to Dating Dead Men by Harley Jane Kozak. I know better then to borrow books from the library because I just end up wanting to keep them.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It's taking me a long time to finish this, which is not a good sign. Kozak's writing seems clunky and her attempts at adding surprises to her plot are awkward and amateurish. Yet I do want to finish this book just so I can move onto the next one in my TBR list.
