Badge Bunny Booze Mystery (Fiona Quinn) Books in Order

Badge Bunny Booze is Fiona Quinn and Tina Glasneck cutting loose. Written together under the pen name Quinn Glasneck, this series is where they trade high-stakes espionage for barstool chaos and laugh-out-loud mystery trouble.

The books follow Bobbi Jax, better known as BJ, the woman trying to keep her bar, and her life, from catching fire. Her best friend Kay is always in the middle of the action, whether they are chasing a lead, dodging a bad decision, or talking their way into a place they should not be.

They are not professional investigators, which is exactly the problem.

Instead of long briefings and official procedure, these mysteries start with something odd and snowball fast. A joke becomes a crime scene. A side job turns into a case. A trip that should be relaxing turns into a new list of suspects. BJ and Kay are amateur sleuths by accident, but once they are in it, they commit with the confidence of people who have never been told 'no' often enough.

Tone is the point. The series is snarky, full of double entendres, and very aware of how ridiculous the situation has become. The humor does not erase the mystery, it just means you get banter, friendship, and a little romantic tension alongside the clues. If you want something lighter between the intense missions of the Iniquus books, this series works as a palate cleanser.

You can read most entries on their own, but the friendship, running jokes, and relationship beats land best in order. Starting with If You See Kay Run introduces BJ and Kay at peak impulse, and later titles like If You See Kay Lie, If You See Kay Freeze, and If You See Kay Shift keep raising the chaos level.

Expect quick reads, low commitment, and a lot of laughs, plus the occasional reminder that BJ and Kay are sharper than they look when they absolutely have to be.
