The Mom Squad is a mystery about a former up-and-coming rock star turned reluctant stay-at-home mom who stumbles upon a case of citywide corruption in Philadelphia. Enlisting the help of her playgroup moms, she juggles a toddler, a cantankerous stepdaughter, and an absentee husband in order to solve the murder that seems tied to the mayoral election – and possibly the husbands of her playgroup moms.
Maya D’Angelo had been on the verge of a successful music career as a singer for Nick Peyton’s hard-rock band. She didn’t mean to fall in love with Nick, cause his divorce, and get knocked up. But her now-mundane life as a new mom takes an unexpected twist when she meets moms Rachel and Susan, whose husbands are connected to a corrupt election scandal. As the moms investigate the disappearance and possible murder of the leading candidate, their detective work takes them into the recesses of Philadelphia politics: crooked politicians, strip club owners, a corrupt mayoral race. Maya teeters between excitement and anxiety as she peels layer after layer from the complex political story, never sure if the people in her new mommy life are as innocent as they seem.
With its quirky take on motherhood, eccentric characters, and Philadelphia flavor, The Mom Squad is an intriguing mystery that is solved using perseverance, wit, and an occasional pacifier. The Mom Squad is the first in a series.
