Blurb/Summary:
Unalived recently? Lose your head? Need someone to help you get to the other side—with your head?
Then I’m your girl—Evanora Dark at your service!
During a design competition for charity Tambi Schubert, local Buttermilk Bay's
star stager and designer has a little accident.
Okay, it’s a not so little (read big—my word, so big).
I find her, relieved of her head via a power tool, in the house I’m designing
for the competition, bringing a screeching halt to the contest and an
investigation that leaves me as a suspect.
Yet, as I take a deep dive into Tambi’s past, I find almost everyone’s a
suspect. Her past doesn’t only reveal her dismissive treatment of others, and
some dark secrets, but a lonely woman who’s afraid of what waits for her on the
other side.
But the only way to find out, and to clear my name, is to find Tambi’s killer
before I end up losing my head—no pun intended!
Review:
Evanora had her work cut out for her with the newest ghost, Tambi Schubert. Tambi was demanding and persnickety while she was alive and not too different dead. Tambi’s decapitation and depiction of said decapitation as a ghost was not for the faint of heart. Dakota Cassidy got creative with the decapitation details.
Evanora must procure a list of suspects fast before she gets arrested for Tambi’s murder. She sets her hat for some major sleuthing. Unfortunately, everyone looks like a suspect because of their relationships with Tambi.
Evanora has a bit of trouble juggling her sleuthing and personal life in this book. Her boyfriend becomes extremely curious of her activities and protective of her. How much longer will she be able to hide what she does before she slips up in front of him?
This was a nail biter until the end with a few unusual plot twists. Dakota Cassidy does a wonderful job of wrapping up the story and giving readers a HFN and HEA ending, depending on the characters. Stabby Chic, book four, is a terrific addition to the Bewitching Midlife Crisis Mysteries series.
