Produktbeschreibung
Marla's family reunion at a haunted Florida resort turns up dead bodies instead of fond memories in this spooky cozy mystery. Hairstylist Marla Shore is eager to introduce her fiancé, Detective Dalton Vail, to her extended family over Thanksgiving weekend at Sugar Crest Plantation Resort. But that was before she found Aunt Polly suffocated in bed. Is it a coincidence that her aunt's father once owned the property? According to rumor, he met with two mysterious Cossacks immediately before his premature death. Their spirits are said to haunt the place, and Marla believes it when she hears a bell tolling outside and feels a cold presence inside the hotel's rickety elevator. Are ghosts at fault for the strange goings-on, or could politics be playing a part? Sugar Crest is slated for demolition, although some folks would profit if it was remodeled instead. The city council meeting is being held that weekend to determine the resort's fate. Tensions deepen when another body turns up on the nature trail. Whatever is going on at Sugar Crest, someone is willing to go to great lengths to keep it hidden. But the killer doesn't count on Marla, who determines to learn the truth even if it means uprooting her family's unsavory past. "Dead Roots has all right the ingredients for a great hair day, absolutely fun, winsome characters, a fast¿paced, wonderful mystery read!" Heather Graham, NY Times Bestselling Author
