The Vanishing Groom (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780645748079)

Mortician Phoebe Astin and her brothers, Julius and Ambrose, of The Economic Undertaker loved the chilly winter weather; it was much more befitting to wearing dark suits and burying the dearly departed. However, not all that were buried remained that way, notably two young ladies who appear in spirit form to Phoebe, claiming to have died from heartbreak after being left at the altar, their fortunes stolen. Determined to help them get justice, Phoebe provided a tip to her beau, Detective Stone, to catch the cad. But suddenly, the weather was not all that was proving to be chilly when, for the first time, Detective Stone dismissed Phoebe's clue; Julius was ambivalent to her hurt; and an angry Ambrose was most out of sorts. Regardless, there was a cad to be caught, and being dead was no excuse for letting crime go unpunished.
