After getting hit in the head with a plastic Santa, Emma
Lee Raines, the Eternal Slumber Funeral Home director, can
see ghosts. Not only see them, but speak to them and most
important - solve their murders. In the psychic world she
is known as a "Betweener Medium," a person who helps
ghosts get to the other side. That's right, Emma Lee can only
see ghosts that need her help. Right now she is on the case
of the dead chicken. I mean Chicken Teater. Emma Lee is working
with her hunky boyfriend, Sheriff Jack Henry Ross, to figure
out who murdered Chicken. The entire town is in an uproar
over the exhumation. Add to that the annual Kentucky Cave
Festival, and Sleepy Hollow, Kentucky will never be the same.
Things to ponder: Who cut the lock on Lady Cluckington's
cage? Is Granny going into politics? Does Marla Marie Teater
know about Chicken's property? Who is the guy in the John
Deere hat?
What a fun read. The story pulled me in from the first page.
The characters are delightful and crazy quirky. This soon
became a page-turner of a read for me. I had to find out whodunit.
Cozy mystery reader will thoroughly enjoy themselves getting
to know the characters - living and deceased. So, if you like
your mystery filled with unique characters, then you should
be reading A Ghostly Grave.
