Praise for A New Lease on Death
THE ANTHONY AWARD WINNER FOR BEST PARANORMAL
“This pair of amateur detectives just works, and readers will root for them and the friendship they’re building.” -Booklist

“A lot of twists and turns… highly recommend.” - Aunt Agatha’s
“A fun, supernatural mystery.” -Red Carpet Crash
