Dying Echo

Praise for the Grim Reaper mysteries... "Danger, dark humor, and a fascinating heroine." -Charles Todd, author of the Inspector Ian Rutledge and Bess Crawford mysteries Casey Maldonado is back in her hometown. The reason: to get her brother Ricky out of jail, where he's been arrested for the murder of his girlfriend Alicia McManus. Casey believes he's innocent, but proving it is complicated, since she has her own murder warrant to worry about. And she still must deal with her personal demons-the life she shared with her late husband and son, her mother's resentment, and the presence of Eric, who wants to be more than a friend. As Casey and her companion Death investigate, it becomes clear Alicia was not who she claimed to be. Where did she come from? What did she know? And who were the three people she spoke of when Death carried her away...? Judy Clemens lives in Ohio, where she writes, cooks, and enjoys her day job at a metal recycling yard. www.judyclemens.com
