β¦ Synopsis
βA throw-back style detective novel that readers of all stripes should pay attention to.β β*The Los Angeles Times*
Christopher just needed a job to kill time the summer after graduation. He didnβt expect to stumble across a murder cover-up when he was hired as a janitor at the morgue. With the sheriff as his prime suspect, he turns to Tina, a gorgeous newspaper reporter, to help him get to the bottom of the case. Suddenly they find themselves in a full-blown investigation involving bribery, kidnappings, more murdersΒ and his best friend.
With plenty of plot twists, red herrings, and dry wit, The Morgue and Me is a page-turning modern take on the classic detective genre perfect for fans of Veronica Mars andΒ Shelter.
**βA dark and stellar debut.β βPublishers Weekly, starred review
βFast-paced and full of red herrings, itβll keep you guessing.β β*New York Post***
