Synopsis

Introducing sleuth Pepper Martin...

And now, in her fourth hip, quirky mystery, she?s all ours.

Pepper Martin, heiress-turnedcemetery- tour-guide, often has her hands full with two hotties and the ghosts who won?t let her rest?or work, or shop?in peace.

Now the specter of a young woman in a lab coat wants Pepper?s help. Before the woman died, she worked with a sexy, mysterious doctor who coincidentally once saved Pepper?s life?and who the woman claims is now in danger. But Pepper doesn?t know that there?s more to the story, including a devious doctor?and an obsessive, crazy love.

About this title

About the Author

Casey Daniels once applied for a job as a tour guide in a cemetery. She didn't get the job, but she did get the idea for the Pepper Martin Mysteries. Casey learned to love mysteries early, thanks to her father, a Cleveland police detective who enjoyed Sherlock Holmes stories and spent his days off searching for stolen cars, with Casey along for the ride. Later, she read her way through every mystery on the library shelves. Casey has a degree in English and a background in journalism and teaching. She lives in northeast Ohio.

From Publishers Weekly

Sass and the supernatural cross paths in the entertaining fourth Penelope Pepper Martin mystery (after 2007's Tombs of Endearment). Perky, fashion-conscious Pepper, a Cleveland cemetery tour guide and PI for the dead, hopes for a reprieve from ghostly visitors while at a cemetery conference in Chicago. Instead, she lands a gig representing the ghost of snide researcher Madeline Tremayne. Madeline warns that saintly psychologist Dr. Hilton Gerard is working on a shady study—patients go in but they don't come out—and Dan Callahan, his assistant and Pepper's occasional savior, is unwittingly poised to take the fall. Pepper proves once again that great style, quick wit and a sharp eye can solve any mystery, though the rushed conclusion is a little over the top and may disappoint series fans. (Jan.)
