About this ebook

Secrets and soul stones and neon body paint… guess who’s up to her neck in murder?

Just when undercover SIA agent Holly Day thinks she has life in small town Gravestone handled, someone flies off the handle and Tarkath mobster Dino Cittadino turns up dead.

Throw in a treasure hunt with fake clues, a busty blonde with secrets of her own, and a mysterious stranger who seems oddly familiar, and Holly is up to her eyeballs in intrigue and chaos.

Holly’s mission? Avoid trouble and keep a low profile.

Holly’s reality? She’s on a rollercoaster ride of danger, where she can’t go five minutes without getting injured, and the only thing hotter than the murder investigation is her crush on the sheriff.

Life has become messier than a kid’s finger-painting project, more complicated than advanced calculus, and more dangerous than running with scissors. And that’s just a typical day for Holly! Her rat, Flynn, is her only constant companion in this whirlwind of madness, and her senior sidekick Doris is always ready to risk life and limb - or at least her driver’s license - to help Holly solve the case. 

Holly’s life is a swirling vortex of chaos. All she can do is hold on for dear life and hope she doesn’t get splattered like a bug on a windshield.

Ratings and reviews

Every book in this series just gets better and better. This one was my favorite so far. The mystery had some twists, but I really read these books for the laughs. Doris is hilarious and I love her and Holly together. The hints of romance, the introduction of new characters, the answers and new questions, and the joy of knowing there will be more stories fills my heart with happiness. It's a fun, lighthearted read that shouldn't be missed.

A quick read but a fun cozy mystery. Despite being book book 3, there is plenty of new action and adventure. Holly stumbles upon a dead man who has been murdered. Holly being Holly, isn't going to leave the investigations to the local police. In comes loveable Doris and they again work together. Holly is led to believe everything she thought was incorrect and doesn't know what or who to trust anymore. A great story where we learn more about some of the locals and get to meet some new characters.

Wow, this was so full of twists and turns and things I just did not expect. This book did not end as expected and as much as I enjoyed the first 2 in series this one was very unexpected. Holly found out a lot of things about herself some real some not, I definitely recommend this as a very good read. I would say to read the first 2 then this one as it can be confusing if you haven't read the first 2. Once I started reading I could not put it down. I have reviewed freely and in my own words
