About this ebook
No one is more surprised than Moody County’s District Attorney Daniel Frazer when Walt, his old college roommate, shows up in a cabin along the river with a group of friends for a getaway over New Year’s Eve weekend.
But the horn-blowing and champagne-drinking cease when Walt’s murdered body is found in the forest near the river. This is Daniel’s first murder case since being appointed D.A., and he turns to the Gyver County District Attorney Oliver Clarke for help.
Oliver is wrapped up in his own case, so he suggests Daniel seek the aid of the Grave Sisters. But the sisters’ expertise lies in their familiarity with Gyver, California, and its inhabitants. In Moody, Nevada, they are in the dark.
Can the Grave sisters help Daniel sort out the likely suspects among friends and enemies to solve this twisted tale of lies and deceit? Will a fancy cigarette holder, a plain cigarette case, and a figure running “like lightning” through the forest give them insights into who killed Daniel’s friend?
Pick up the third book of this exciting, new Jazz Age mystery series!

About the author
Writing has been Tam’s voice since the age of fourteen. She writes stories set in the past that feature sassy and sensitive women characters. Her fiction gives readers the experience of women struggling to carve out an identity for themselves during eras when their options were limited. Her stories are set mostly around the Bay Area because she adores sourdough bread, Ghirardelli chocolate, and San Francisco history.
Tam is the author of the Adele Gossling Mysteries which takes place in the early 20th century and features suffragist and epistolary expert Adele Gossling whose talent for solving crimes doesn’t sit well with her town’s conventional ideas about women and their place.
Tam is also working on a new series, the Grave Sisters Mysteries about three sisters who own a funeral home and help the county D.A. solve crimes in a 1920s small California town. The first book of the series is set to launch in 2025.
In addition, Tam writes historical fiction about women breaking loose from the social and psychological expectations of their era. She has a 4-book series set in the 1890s titled the Waxwood Series and a post-World War II short story collection available.
Although Tam left her heart in San Francisco, she lives in the Midwest because it’s cheaper. When she’s not writing, she’s devouring everything classic (books, films, art, music), concocting yummy plant-based dishes, and exploring her new riverside town.
