What to expect
Someone is spreading rumors around Deadwood that Violet Parker likes to chat with dead folks.
With her reputation endangered, her bank account on the verge of extinction, and her career at risk of going up in flames, Violet is desperate. When the opportunity to sell another vintage home materializes, she grabs it, even though this "haunted" house was recently the stage for a two-act murder-suicide tragedy.
Ghost or no ghost, Violet knows this can't be as bad as the last house of horrors she tried to sell, but sexy Doc Nyce has serious doubts. Her only hope of hanging on to her job is to prove that the so-called ghostly sightings are merely the eccentric owner's optical delusions.
But someone—or something—in the house wants Violet stopped … dead.
Critics Review
“What a voice!
Hilarious, original, and genuinely wonderful. This fresh and feisty mystery
will instantly win your heart. Loved it!”
“Ann Charles writes a
top-notch mystery that is fast-paced, complex, and laugh-out-loud funny! A
genuinely exciting and sexually suspenseful mystery, Charles delivers in her
second Violet Parker novel set in Deadwood, South Dakota. Fast-moving with
twists even a seasoned mystery reader won’t see coming, this is a can’t-put-it-down
book.”
“A smart, sassy,
sexy, and wonderfully resourceful heroine. Move over Stephanie Plum—Vi Parker
is here!”
