Miz Dusty Le Frey

MM Paranormal Romance & Dark Comedy (Crawshanks Guide to the Recently Departed: Dead Serious, Case 1)

By: Vawn Cassidy

Narrated by: Joel Leslie

In the business of unfinished business...

Tristan Everett has always preferred the company of the dead because they usually don't talk back. Being a somewhat awkward introvert working as a pathologist at the Hackney Public Mortuary suits him just fine. That is, until a freak accident with a rogue ice cube and suddenly he can see ghosts.

Just when he thought his life couldn't get any weirder, sassy drag queen, Dusty Le Frey, is wheeled in with a toe tag and she's not prepared to go quietly into the light. Not only is she furious at the prospect of spending eternity in last season's gold lame, she's determined that he help her solve her murder.

Suddenly Tristan finds himself thrown into a world of sequins and fake eyelashes, and worse still, he may have developed a bit of a crush on Scotland Yard's brand new drool-worthy detective, Inspector Danny Hayes, who's been assigned to Dusty's murder. Oh, and as the icing on top of a really crappy cake, the killer now wants him dead too...

All he ever wanted was a simple life but suddenly he's juggling work, a deliciously sexy detective, a stubborn ghost and a relentless murderer... and things have just gotten dead serious....

From author Vawn Cassidy comes this hot and funny, slow burn, opposites attract paranormal caper across the East End of London.

Sweet and romantic

I gave this book a try because I was familiar with the narrator from other books. He did not disappoint, and I was consistently impressed with his ability to embody very different characters. As for the book itself, this is a love story, but not just one of romantic love. Yes, there is plenty of heat between the main characters, but the relationships among friends and family members are just as moving. I will definitely be giving the next book in the series a try.

Wow!

I never really get into books or audio books but this one REALLY drew me in! it was a thrill and it kept me guessing. I recommend this and I NEVER recommend things like this!

Good Fun

This is the first book I’ve read or listened to by this author and it won’t be the last! This was a fun read. Lots of humor and tongue-in-cheek banter. Joel Leslie was great as always. I’m buying the second in the series now.

I thoroughly enjoyed this mystery!

I Loved this story. All the twists and turns. I adored all the characters. I especially enjoyed all the different voices the narrator used to portray the characters. What a treat! I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.

Sooo good!

I want these characters as my friends! Lots of laughs and some tears, all brought to life by the incredible talents of Joel Leslie, THE best narrator out there.
