Description
If laughter is the best medicine, John Smith belongs in everyone's medicine cabinet.
In In$urance to Die For, a scam artist's plan for making money off of insurance turns deadly.
John Smith, an insurance investigator as ordinary and nondescript as his name, is determined to protect his company's reputation, but his investigation is frequently interrupted by his war with local crows, the gift of an uncontrollable kitten who hates him, and being signed up for a dating app by prankster poker players. He ends up with more enemies than Harry Potter and discovers that sometimes being a klutz is a life-saving skill.
