Jane Delaney does things her paying customers can’t do, don’t want to do, don’t want to be seen doing, can’t bring themselves to do, and/or don’t want it to be known they’d paid someone to do. To dead people.Life gets complicated for Jane and her Death Diva business when she’s hired to liberate a gaudy mermaid brooch from the corpse during a wake—on behalf of the rightful owner, supposedly. Well, … supposedly. Well, a girl’s got to make a living, and this assignment pays better than scattering ashes, placing flowers on graves, or bawling her eyes out as a hired mourner. Unfortunately for Jane, someone else is just as eager to get his hands on that brooch, and he’s even sneakier than she is, not to mention dangerously sexy.
Just when she thinks her biggest problem is grand theft mermaid, things take a murderous turn. But hey, when you’ve teamed up with a neurotic seven-pound poodle named Sexy Beast, how can you go wrong?

Charming and witty, the dear protagonist is an unusual character with a unique career. Self-effacing and witty, she talks to the reader as if she was your BFF! The challenges of this little mystery will amuse you and you will identify with her character arc and self insights. I read this in a single night, as the pages grabbed and dragged me onward. I do recommend this for a fun read! I will be purchasing the next in the series and so should you 🙂
This book was extremely entertaining. The characters were well done, the plot was interesting without being too ridiculous. the writer is self depreciating in a humorous way. I really enjoyed it & would like to see more with these characters.
Enjoyable read. Creative twists.
