Alice keeps telling herself this is Twila's gig, and she's only here to back up her aunt and mentor as they discipline some rowdy ghosts. But she, Granny, and the pets are on their own when Twila's plane gets delayed. It's not the ghosts she's worried about, though. It's when she discovers the newly-dead woman in the hotel and realizes someone has stolen the poor woman's hands. Twila rides in to do her share about the same time as Jack, Alice's ex. The villains are forced to step up their pace, though, with a homicide detective on the premises and a handless ghost who might expose their dastardly plans.

Book Description
It’s All Just a Show...Right? “This is an authentic old west ghost town, son. Around these parts the dead don’t stay dead.” Nick Caden’s vacation at Deadwood Canyon Ghost Town takes a deadly turn toward trouble when the fifteen-year-old finds himself trapped in a livery stable with the infamous outlaw Jesse James. The shooter whirls, aims and... vanishes. Great theatrics, Nick thinks, except now he’s alone in the hayloft with the bullet-riddled body of Billy the Kid. And by the time the sheriff arrives, the body disappears. Soon Nick is caught in a deadly chase—from an abandoned gold mine, through forbidden buffalo hunting grounds, and across Rattlesnake Gulch. Around every turn he finds another suspect. Will Nick solve the murder? Will his parents have him committed? Or will the town's infatuation with Hollywood theatrics conceal the real truth about souls, spirits and the destiny that awaits those who die.

Book Description
In the tradition of his renowned father, James J. Butcher’s debut novel is a brilliant urban fantasy about a young man who must throw out the magical rule book to solve the murder of his former mentor. On the streets of Boston, the world is divided into the ordinary Usuals, and the paranormal Unorthodox. And in the Department of Unorthodox Affairs, the Auditors are the magical elite, government-sanctioned witches with spells at their command and all the power and prestige that comes with it. Grimshaw Griswald Grimsby is…not one of those witches. After flunking out of the Auditor training program and being dismissed as “not Department material,” Grimsby tried to resign himself to life as a mediocre witch. But he can’t help hoping he’ll somehow, someway, get another chance to prove his skill. That opportunity comes with a price when his former mentor, aka the most dangerous witch alive, is murdered down the street from where he works, and Grimsby is the Auditors’ number one suspect. Proving his innocence will require more than a little legwork, and after forming a strange alliance with the retired legend known as the Huntsman and a mysterious being from Elsewhere, Grimsby is abruptly thrown into a life of adventure, whether he wants it or not. Now all he has to do is find the real killer, avoid the Auditors on his trail, and most importantly, stay alive.

A Naked Ghost Demands Help in Dead Man Haunt, a Murder Mystery from T. M. Simmons —Mineral Springs, Texas— When Patrick, a gorgeous naked ghost, reaches out to author and paranormal investigator, Alice Carpenter and her cohorts for help, the small town of Mineral Springs, Texas, will never be the same. In exchange for helping him journey to the hereafter, Patrick leads Alice into a crumbling historical hotel, where she discovers a new murder—a woman severed in half at the bottom of an elevator shaft. Joined by her Rottweiler, Trucker, her Siamese, Miss Molly, her mentor and teacher, Aunt Twila, her next-door neighbor, Granny Chisholm, and even her ex-husband, Detective Jack Roucheau, Alice attempts to solve these two murders. Together, they traverse the bowels of the haunted hotel, survive a hair-raising motorcycle ride, and journey the backcountry boondocks with Granny, who fantasizes she's an Indi-500 driver. With only a few minutes left to expose the murderers and set the ghosts to rest before a bomb destroys the hotel, decisions are vital. Should they save themselves and leave behind the evildoers and restless ghosts, as well as a stolen body in a coffin? Might they risk their own lives to bring a peaceful existence to the formerly grand hotel? From the Publisher: Cozy mystery fans and readers who enjoy amateur sleuths, ghosts and a supernatural twist will enjoy this fun series of mysteries with its cast of colorful characters. "...throws ghost-hunting Texas gals and survivalists together in a haunted hotel. For those who believe in ghosts, thrills, chills, and giggles..." ~Kirkus Reviews "In DEAD MAN HAUNT, T. M. Simmons brings together a most unusual group, led by a writer and talented ghosthunter, who is bent on helping a very handsome ghost who likes to run naked through a disintegrating mineral springs hotel searching for his lost love. The sulting action is funny, full of crazy antics, and it's downright endearing for a murder mystery." ~NOVELTALK "This exciting paranormal whodunit uses ghosts as support characters, which surprisingly seems real because of the interplay between the spirits and the brave living sleuths. Alice and Twila take the existence of ghosts in stride as if it is an everyday occurrence, which to them it is, while Alice’s ex Jack denies their existence. As with DEAD MAN TALKING, T.M. Simmons provides a lightfully charming leisurely flowing supernatural cozy." ~Harriet Klausner, Reviewer "I can’t get enough of this author." ~ Martha A.

Book Description
A Fishing Trip Nets a Murderer in Dead Man Ohio, a Murder Mystery from T. M. Simmons —The Middle of Ohio— Our intrepid crew of ghost hunters is at it again, this time in Ohio, where ghosts from the state's past roam the woods, and mythological beasts exist only in lore. Or do they? It's Alice's ex-husband, Jack, who spots a strange creature in Twila's little red car after he arrives in Ohio to spend some time fishing with Twila's husband, Jess, near their beautiful farmhouse deep in the woods of Ohio. Twila bravely tries to handle the situation alone, unaware the entity shadowing her is testing her psychic senses. At Jack's call, Alice and Granny pack what they need to help, along with Trucker and Miss Molly, and hie-tail it from Texas to Yankee land. Twila and Jess's farm, filled with historical burial mounds, and surrounded by Amish farmland, seems too peaceful to be dangerous. Perhaps the serenity lulls the local residents into believing they are safe, unable to see what truly lives among them. It takes the capture of a murderer and the exposure of a hidden society of clever creatures to sort this out.
