Congratulations to the winners of the latest contest. Charles Finch’s The Laws of Murder will go to Susan B. from Shoreline, WA. Murder at Brightwell by Ashley Weaver goes to Tricia J. from Yuba City, CA. The books will go in the mail tomorrow.
This week, I’m giving away two ghostly mysteries. And, considering tomorrow’s blog has a message from Carolyn Hart, it’s appropriate to start with her book, Ghost Wanted. Bailey Ruth’s supervisor is worried about an old friend, The Lady of the Roses, who haunts the college library in Adelaide, Oklahoma. Wiggins sends Bailey Ruth to earth to find out who is ruining his friend’s reputation. Once she gets there, she finds herself helping the ghost while also finding the true killer of a security guard. This series is always marked by humor and Bailey Ruth’s charming sense of style.
Or, maybe you’d like to meet historic ghosts of the Pony Express riders. Paige Shelton’s If Catfish Had Nine Lives was one of my favorites in the Country Cooking School mystery series. And, you don’t need to have read previous books. Shelton will skillfully introduce you to Betts Winston, her grandmother, and Betts’ ghostly guardian, Jerome. Betts has her hands full in this book when her brother becomes a murder suspect while she’s also trying to find out more about the ghost of a Pony Express rider who has unfinished business in Broken Rope, Missouri.
