Bøker i A Cornwall & Redfern Mystery-serien

It's happening, and you're invited! After three mystery stories crammed with blackmail, poisonings, graveyard theft, arms dealing, gunfights, and more than a few suspicious deaths, Bliss Moonbeam Cornwall and Police Chief Neil Redfern have given up the struggle of denying their love. On this steamy, summer day, they're tying the knot. Like the preceding novels, WEDDED BLISS provides plenty of laughs, including a drunken cousin, a foul-mouthed parrot, missing underwear, and a suspicious platter of devilled eggs. Not to mention something is off about the shrimp. Since this is Bliss we're talking about, an old cemetery plays a crucial part. While Bliss is encasing herself in a too-tight wedding gown, Neil is alone in a motel room across town eyeballing his braid-covered dress uniform and wondering if he'll pass out from the heat. Both are minutes away from facing dark echoes of the past that threaten to prevent their happy future. Readers of the Cornwall & Redfern Mysteries will recognize the guests who gather to ensure the wedding is special for Bliss and Neil. Old friends and old enemies - it's a day Bliss and Neil will never forget. Please join them.

Wrapped in her Reaper robe, Bliss accompanies the local coven to the abandoned Darkwood Burial Ground for the pagan holiday celebrating harvest's end. There's food and mead, a bonfire and dancing. The festivities are in full swing when Bliss notices a few of the old gravestones are icy to the touch - and glowing in the fog-shrouded cemetery. She remembers too late that, during Samhain, the lines between the physical and spirit worlds blur.The coven is thrilled - will they finally witness departed souls crossing the thinning Veil to visit and share their feast?

Every grave in the cemetery lights up, and a full-on soul invasion seems imminent.Will Bliss find a way to save the pagans and herself from the otherworldly forces amassing in Darkwood? What in Hades will happen if she can't?
