Dead Before Dying by Kerry Schafer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Maureen is determined to get out of hospital and on with her life after spending weeks recovering from being shot. Whilst her doctor is trying to tell her how to look after herself, Maureen is focused on the man lurking outside her hospital room. Abel is here for something but she doesn’t know what it is. He gives her a lift home where she discovers her husband has moved another woman in.

Abel informs her that he has an undercover job for her at Shadow Valley Manor and who her contact will. The welcome she receives it hostile but this does not stop Maureen from barging her way in. Her time of arrival at the Manor coincides with a death of one of the people living there.

Maureen soon discovers her contact has been murdered and more strange deaths keep happening with a lot of unanswered questions. Maureen is used to working with the Paranormal and tries to piece things together. The things she finds leads her to more questions and finds that they could be related to her past.

Will Maureen be able to save the residents of Shadow Valley Manor or will she like so many other fall victim to the unnatural happens?

This story is well written with lots of twists and turns and surprises. If you like crime and paranormal then you will like this story.
