Penelope Lemon is Back in Light-hearted, Zany Page-turner, Operation Dimwit

-- The follow-up to comedic hit Penelope Lemon: Game On! is available today --

May 13, 2020...Building on the comedic hijinks of Majors' hit Penelope Lemon: Game On!, Operation Dimwit is a warmhearted look at the challenges of being a single working mom trying to stay afloat in the middle class after a divorce.

It’s summertime, and Penelope Lemon's son Theo is away at camp. Feeling frisky, free, and tired of living vicariously through nighttime trysts with erotic novels, Penelope can begin phase two of her post-divorce life. First on the agenda is a date with the mysterious Fitzwilliam Darcy, who lives in a mansion with his snobbish cat, Algernon.

Meanwhile, back at the trailer park office, Penelope’s boss, Missy, has become obsessed with getting rid of Dimwit, the backwoods interloper who may be stealing personal items from female residents.

Zany, stylish, and uproariously funny, this southern comedy will have readers laughing out loud at familiar absurdities of life in the twenty-first century USA. It's an addictive page-turner and a delightful escape while social distancing. 

Review copies of the book are available upon request.
