Dead in the Doorway
(2020)(The second book in the House-Flipper Mystery series)
A novel by Diane Kelly
Dead in the Doorway is the second in a delightful cozy series from Diane Kelly set in Nashvillewhere the real estate market is to die for.
A HOUSE WITH GOOD BONES. . .
Whitney Whitaker has scored the perfect piece of real estate: a ramshackle white Colonial at the top of a hill with views of downtown Nashville. What more could a self-taught home-improvement maven and occasional house-flipper ask for? Ideally, the property of Whitneys dreams would not have come with a dead body blocking the entrance to the foyer. But Whitney, always quick to take heavy-duty matters into her own hands, also happens to be a skilled amateur sleuth. So that helps.
AND SKELETONS IN THE CLOSET.
Who is this older womanand how did her corpse end up at the bottom of the staircase of this locked, unoccupied house? That is what Whitney, along with the support of her wood-working cousin Buck, Detective Collin Flynn, and, of course, feline partner-in-crime Sawdust, intends to find out. Her friendly-neighbor investigation takes a sharp turn, however, when Whitney discovers that the houses former owner was a gourmet baker whose secret recipe for peach pie was to die forperhaps literally. Now its up to Whitney to learn the truth about what happened before she loses this killer real-estate deal . . . and the killer comes knocking at her door.
"Adorable Whitney and Sawdust are a welcome addition to your home and bookshelf."Kellye Garrett, Anthony, Agatha, and Lefty Award--winning author of the Hollywood Homicide series
