Synopsis:

Crying in the Chapel by Teresa Trent

Swinging Sixties Mystery Series

 

It’s August 1965, and Dot Morgan is finally getting married to the dashing reporter Ben Dalton. Her wedding day, August 14th, promises to be perfect—if only it didn’t follow Friday the 13th. What could go wrong? Planning a wedding with the members of the Camden Chapel, Dot thinks she’s overwhelmed, but then it gets worse when a body is found on the church lawn. Dot decides to focus on her wedding to Ben, but when police reveal the victim didn’t jump from the belfry he was pushed—she can no longer look away. Her suspects aren’t hardened criminals; they’re the same church members who bring casseroles and ask about her family. With her wedding day fast approaching, Dot must unmask a killer hiding in plain sight, or the secrets of Camden Chapel will remain buried in the summer heat.

BLURB
Maggie Maxwell didn’t mean to become the town’s newest scandal.

But moving into her dead uncle’s haunted manor came with more than creaky headboards—it came with murders. Multiple. Right in her backyard.

And a six-foot-four officer, built like a wall of muscle and her filthiest desires, babysitting her like she’s breakable. He’s brooding, bossy, and overprotective—and Maggie? She’s sworn off quick flings. Especially since her love spell has a new side effect: obsessive, zombie-like exes who abandon their families just to worship the ground she walks on.

HARLOW
Insanity—I can taste it lingering on the tip of my tongue, threatening to slip down my throat and poison me. But my hunger for revenge is relentless. And I’m not leaving this earth until my appetite has been satiated. 

The only problem: I’m being robbed of my sins before I can commit them. And I know exactly who’s to blame.

LYNX
She’s prepared to stain her soul by seeking sweet revenge. And although I enjoy watching her toy with her prey, I won’t allow her to condemn herself to hell for eternity. 

I’ll lurk in the dark, stealing her gratification the way she steals my breath, until every drop of blood of the men who wronged her has run dry. 

After all, monsters like me were built for this.
