BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
I am ABSOLUTELY THRILLED to able to announce a shiny new series! AFTERLIFE is a humorous supernatural mystery about a ghost who teams up with the new (living) roommate of her apartment to solve a series of apparently unconnected murders.
*This is not a cozy* It is a darkly funny mystery series with supernatural elements that will run simultaneously (but separately) with the Record Shop Mysteries. More info as we get closer, so look for AFTERLIFE Fall 2024 from Minotaur! 👻
Upcoming Events: April Book Club!
