Welcome to Walking with Dead People: a blog dedicated to readers who like a little history in with our mystery. I don’t know about you, but I’ve never felt the need to keep my PD James novels on a separate shelf from my copies of The Ultimate Jack the Ripper Companion (Yes, I have one — don’t judge me!) and Weird NJ. So why should a blog be any different? On this site, I poke around the stories and puzzles that interest me, whether they take place in the real (ish) world or only on the pages of a good mystery novel. Come on in and have a scout around…

Walking With Dead People - Hollywood

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mayor of Hollywood earned an honorable mention in the 2013 Beach Book Festival, General Fiction category.

 

Emme from Amazon.com called Mayor of Hollywood a four-star summer read: “Quick pace with likeable main characters, immediately engrossing. Loved learning little bits about old Hollywood along the way…”

 

Four stars from Amazon.com reader Dog Mom for Walking with Dead People – Hollywood : “This was a fun, quick read that I enjoyed a lot…”

Share

The Heights is a historical mystery I’ve written, set in 1930s Hollywood. I’ll be posting audio episodes once a week. The main character, Percy Minor, is a young woman who comes to Hollywood to escape the Dust Bowl but finds herself embroiled in a murder.

Chapter Eight — Episode 2 — “Clara and Evie”

 

 

 

If you’re enjoying The Heights, please take a moment to back the book on Authonomy.com. With enough backers, we might just get someone at HarperCollins to read it!
