THE HEARSE YOU CAME IN ON by Tim Cockey

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

Introducing a clever and gripping first mystery novel featuring an unconventional undertaker—who also happens to be one of Baltimore's most eligible and charming bachelors.
"I was going along just fine, solemnly chaperoning the dead into their graves and pretty much otherwise minding my own business when the woman calling herself Carolyn James stuck her halfway pretty face into my life and scattered all hell to the wind."
What self-respecting undertaker would allow himself to get involved in a murder investigation, a series of dirty videos, a case of political blackmail, and police corruption, as well as one of the worst amateur theater productions in recent memory? None, unless your name happens to be Hitchcock Sewell, the most charming suspense hero to come along in years. And who knew an undertaker could look so good? In this fast-paced and enormously entertaining mystery, Hitch has gotten himself into more trouble than any self-respecting undertaker should. This funny, offbeat new mystery series is bound to delight fans of Elmore Leonard and Janet Evanovich.

RATING:

Entertaining read -- anyone from the Baltimore, Md area will particularly enjoy but is not as good as compared authors Evanovich or Leonard.
