I love the Mortician Murders series. It makes the mortuary business fun. This case is a little different for Imogene. She doesn't touch the victim's hair. She literally falls on him face first. Then he opens his eyes. Also El has gotten into the police academy and he is busy during the week, so Imogene goes it alone (with her cousin's help) on this one. It involves a victim named for a famous pirate, a pirate themed funeral described oh so well by the author, treasure hunters, and missing persons. As usual Imogene gets herself into plenty of trouble but by channeling El (WWED-What Would El Do), she makes it out alive. This plot is unique. These characters are wonderful. I have become good friends with them throughout this series and I can't wait for the next book.… (més)

Rosie is an interior decorator trying to get her business started. Twila is another decorator in the same town who always seems to get all the good jobs. The fortress is a huge old home above the see that Rosie has always wanted to get a look at and would die to have the chance to decorate it for the new owner. You should watch what you wish for..I received an advance copy of this book from the author. I was supposed to leave a review the day it was published but I am a few days late. Why? I was having trouble getting into the book at first. Maybe the characters weren't clicking. Maybe the storyline was moving too slowly. Maybe it was just me. I'm not really sure why but I put it down. Then I decided to give it a concentrated effort and soon got totally involved in the story. I couldn't put it down. At first I was distrusting most of the characters, thinking several of them could be the guilty party. The two murders didn't seem related, and what the heck was with those other chapters from the notes of some doctor? I promise you everything is tied up in the end and not in the way I expected. I enjoyed this book so much I have already purchased the other 3 books in the Seven Deadly Sins series by Greta Boris. My heartfelt thanks to the author for allowing me to read her book.… (més)
