Squeaky Clean Mysteries: Books 10-12
(2018)(A book in the Squeaky Clean Mysteries series)
An omnibus of novels by Christy Barritt
Dust and Obey
When Gabby St. Claire's ex-fiance, Riley Thomas, asks for her help in investigating a possible murder at a couples retreat, she knows she should say no. She knows she should run far, far away from the danger of both being around Riley and the crime.
But her nosy instincts and determination take precedence over her logic. At the retreat center she feels like she's stepped into the pages of a creepy gothic novel: an isolated island that's often foggy, an old lodge with a dark history, and a small pool of suspects who each have either motive, means, or opportunity for murder. When another life is threatened, the risk intensifies.
Gabby and Riley must work together to find the killer. In the process, they have to confront demons from their past and deal with their present relationship. If they don't learn to trust each other, they could both end up as fodder for the supposedly cursed island's folklore.
Thrill Squeaker
An abandoned theme park. An unsolved murder. A decision that will change Gabby's life forever.
Restoring an old amusement park and turning it into a destination resort seems like a fun idea for former crime-scene cleaner Gabby St. Claire. The side job gives her the chance to spend time with her friends, something she's missed since beginning a new career.
The job turns out to be more than Gabby bargained for when she finds a dead body on her first day. Add to the mix legends of Bigfoot, creepy clowns, and ghost-like remnants of happier times at the park, and her stay begins to feel like a rollercoaster ride. Someone doesn't want the decrepit Mythical Falls to open again, but just how far is this person willing to go to ensure this venture fails?
As the stakes rise and danger creeps closer, will Gabby be able to restore things in her own life that time has destroyed - including broken relationships? Or is her future closer to the fate of the doomed Mythical Falls?
Cunning Attractions
Politics. Love. Murder.
Radio talk show host Bill McCormick is in his prime. He's dating a supermodel, his book is a bestseller, and his ratings have skyrocketed during the heated election season.
But when Bill's ex-wife, Emma Jean, turns up dead, the media and his detractors assume the opinionated loudmouth is guilty of her murder. Bill's on-air rants about his demon-possessed ex don't help his case. Did someone realize that Bill was the perfect scapegoat? Or could Bill have silenced his Ice Queen ex once and for all?
Gabby Thomas takes on the case, but she soon realizes that Emma Jean had too many enemies to count. From election conspiracy theories to scorned affections and hidden secrets, Emma Jean left a trail of trouble as her legacy. Gabby is determined to follow the twisted path until she finds answers.
As Gabby comes closer to casting her vote for the guilty party, the stakes rise, tensions heat, and her own life is endangered. Will she be able to do a recount as votes are cast about who the murderer is? Or was this whole crime rigged from the start?
