Beschreibung

This is a collection of the final three books in The Father Tom Mysteries. The Haunted Heritage (Book 10)--Excitement is building as the opening of the Acutis Society's Fairy Tales and Frights haunted house approaches. The members of Saint Clare's gaming group have worked hard to transform the interior of the Myer Mansion into something both magical and scary to entertain the families of Myerton as Halloween approaches. But does an actual ghost walk the halls of the 170 year old house? The Fatal Fall (Book 11)--Is stolen money buried somewhere on the campus of Myer College? A newspaper article by Nate prompts a frenzied hunt for the ill-gotten gain. But when a hundred year old skeleton is found buried in a gorge, Father Tom and Helen try to solve a mystery hidden in the mists of time. The Father's Family (Book 12)--After months of waiting, the time has finally arrived. The day after Christmas, Helen and I will marry. We've survived temptation, gossip, and a bullet meant to end the life of the woman I love. But are we going to survive the next four weeks?

Autor

Susan Mathis was born in and grew up in an extremely small town in Alachua County, Florida where her family has lived for more than 100 years. When Susan was still very young, James (J.R) Mathis was born in a somewhat bigger small town about 100 miles south of where she lived. Within a decade, James' small town would become part of Orlando, the biggest tourist destination in the United States. He was not amused. That is how, while Susan was running barefoot, swimming in lakes full of alligators and feeding chickens, James was sitting in his bedroom reading books faster than his father could bring them home from the library. Were James and Susan to write their love story, it would definitely be an enemies-to-lovers trope. They met in the library where he was working. He found her demands for books that he had to pull and bring to her so unreasonable that he actually turned her into the head librarian. She in turn was so anxious to drive him away that when some friends secretly set them up she laid out an entire speech about how miserable her life was (she is typically very upbeat). Little did she suspect that he had a passionate attraction to misery and they were married just over a year later. Fast forward 26 years, three children, four grandchildren and 20 years of James working for the Federal government. He was diagnosed with a highly treatable but still very scary form of cancer. As so often happens, this brush with mortality inspired him to do something he'd always wanted to do, write a novel. After the publication of the second Father Tom Mystery, Susan joined him as coauthor. As far as the Mathises are concerned, writing together is the most fun a couple can have sitting at a computer.
