Hi
Ginger and Readers,
Thanks,
Ginger. I’m excited to have the opportunity to “dish” about my
new mystery, Deadly
Undertaking.
This story was a lifetime in the making. My main character is Lauren
Staab who is the daughter of a funeral director. I am the daughter of
a funeral director too, so many of the elements in the story are
taken from my life experience. But, let me clarify. The story is
fiction, so you can bet not all of the mess Lauren gets into is
actually from my real life.
I
mean we never actually found a murdered man in the garage of the
funeral home. I never had a boyfriend who treated me like Chip
DeYoung treated Lauren. I never actually took love advice from a
shadow man. Hmm, now that I think of it, I guess there’s not much
about my real life in there except I did dust the caskets in the
casket room and set up flowers for visitations and funeral services.
When
you read the story, you’ll have to decide what I’m telling is
from my experience or just made up for your entertainment.
Back
of the Book:
Lauren
Staab knew there would be dead bodies around when she returned home.
After all, her family is in the funeral business, Staab and Blood
Funeral Home. Still, finding an extra body on the floor of the garage
between the hearse and the flower car shocked her. Lauren’s plan to
return to her hometown to help care for her mother and keep the books
for the funeral home suddenly turns upside down in a struggle to
prove she and her family are not guilty of murdering the man. But
will the real killer return for her, her dad, her brother? Her
mother’s secrets, a killer, a handsome policeman, and a shadow man
muddle up her intention to have a simple life. Welcome home, Lauren!
