Lethal Flip: A Home Renovator Mystery
by M. E. BakosPublish: Oct 30, 2020Series: A Home Renovator MysteryMysteryBook Overview
Flipping houses can be LETHAL!Katelyn is back with an easy breezy home renovation project in Crocus Heights, Minnesota. It’s a breath of fresh air. No drama or bad juju. The split entry house needs cosmetic work, painting and flooring, nothing an experienced home rehab specialist can’t handle.
But nothing about this flip is easy.
When investigators remove the neighbor’s wife, deceased, she is curious and alarmed. A murder in the neighborhood will only discourage buyers. The spouse is handsome, charming, and overcome with grief.
Katelyn can empathize, she’s a widow. Her BFF, Myra, is preoccupied with a ghostbuster and rebuilding the Hiptown house. Don Williams, the hunky sheriff, wants to be ‘friends.’ Ex-hubby, Eddy, (it’s complicated) is talking marriage with Lola. Her handyman, Wayne Hamer, is away with Gillie in Las Vegas, the marriage capital of the country. She has Boots, her rescue cat, but he isn’t very good at conversation.
It’s a fun ride as Katelyn uses her amateur sleuthing skills to find the killer, while her rehab goes from creampuff to nightmare. Is it the plumber, carpet layer, an angry ex-husband, the mob, or an owl?
What else can a lonely house flipper do, except play detective?
