Daisy and the Dead
(2020)(The first book in the Murder in Restless Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Emmy Grace
What do a recovering romance writer, an ornery kitten, and a town full of ghosts have in common?
Unfortunately, until further notice, that would be me.
I was two months late on rent when my father called asking for my help. One of his old timer friends named Big Lou disappeared and, for reasons he refused to divulge, Dad didn’t want the cops involved. There also happened to be an opening at the local newspaper. He didn’t tell me what the job entailed, and I didn’t ask. I just needed to be able to pay my rent, so I packed up my cat and we headed to Restless, South Carolina.
Restless is a small town much like the one I grew up in, only with one not-so-small difference. Restless gets its name from all the restless spirits that haunt the place. In other words, it’s overrun by ghosts.
Yep, you read that right. Ghosts! As if that weren’t bad enough, my car keeps overheating, my neighbor has a penchant for gardening in the nude, and my boss is as suspicious as he is hot. But the real kicker is that the moment I arrive in town, I start hearing voices. Human voices. Only these are coming from my cat. If you think that sounds crazy, just wait until you hear what the dead are planning. It’s enough to keep a girl up at night.
Daisy and the Dead is book one in the Murder in Restless cozy mystery series. Book 2, The Dead Wear Red, is available for preorder and releases on November 15, 2020.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
