Will spooky legend twist whodunit into whatdunit?

As sighing winds and fog-drifting nights mask the moon over North Bend County, Kentucky, the sleuthing team of Sheila and Clara test an eerie local legend against the reality of murder. Aided, of course, by their faithful dogs, Gracie the collie and LuLu the lovable mutt.

This small-town crime novel with humor is the seventh book in USA Today bestselling author Patricia McLinns cozy mystery series, Secret Sleuth, which begins with a murder on a transatlantic cruise in Death on the Diversion. In Death on Torrid Avenue and later books, accidental investigator Sheila Mackey returns to dry land in the Midwest, where mysteries abound in her new Kentucky home.

A spooky legend twists grave matters.

Sheila Mackeys dislike for cemeteries cant fend off her friend Claras determination. Amid eerie legends, including a tailgating hearse, the accidental investigator is lured into sorting through deadly questions a century old, revolving around an unidentified victim known as ZigZag Jane.

Who was she? How did she come to be found murdered in the cemetery more than a hundred years ago? Why is the third generation of one family devoting himself to finding the answer?

Nothing follows a straight line in this historic inquiry, including conflict over their sleuthing with Teague ODonnell, newly hired as a part-time detective in North Bend County, Kentucky. Especially when the past doesnt stay in the past and the victims multiply.

From the dog park with Sheilas Gracie and Claras Lulu, to the small-town post office, to yoga class, to the historical society, and always back to ZigZag Cemetery (to Sheilas chagrin), she and Clara negotiate the zigs and zags of this seventh book in USA Today bestselling author Patricia McLinns cozy mystery series, Secret Sleuth. The series begins with a murder on a transatlantic cruise in Death on the Diversion. In Death on Torrid Avenue and later books, accidental investigator Sheila returns to dry land in the Midwest, where mysteries abound in her new Kentucky home.
