Preserving Peaches - Burford, Pamela

. .

Résumé :
Just when it looks like Death Diva Jane Delaney's dormant love life is finally poised to take off, the romantic moment is interrupted by notoriously caustic advice columnist Gertrude Peaches Gillespey-or more accurately, by the discovery of Peaches's mummified corpse. The victim made plenty of enemies with her lacerating wit, so there's no shortage of suspects. And when her shocking secrets come to light, the question becomes: Who didn't want Peaches dead? As if that's not enough, Jane must cope with a second suspicious death, a vexing love triangle, a dirty mayoral election, and the victim's missing collection of peach-shaped knickknacks. Not to mention a hair-raising online date with a possible homicidal maniac. Thank goodness for Jane's loyal sidekick, Sexy Beast. There's nothing like a high-strung, seven-pound poodle to help you solve your mummy issues....

Biographie:
Pamela Burford comes from a funny family. You may take that any way you want. She was raised in a household that valued laughter above all, so of course the first thing she looked for in a husband was a sense of humor. Is it any wonder their grown kids are into stand-up comedy and improv? Oh, and here's another fun family fact: Pamela's identical twin sister, Patricia Ryan, aka P.B. Ryan, is also a published novelist. Patricia is the Good Twin, and yeah, Pamela knows what that makes her. But hey, Evil Twins have more fun!It should come as no surprise that everything Pamela writes is infused with her own quirky brand of humor, from her feel-good contemporary romance and romantic suspense novels to her popular Jane Delaney mystery series, featuring snarky Death Diva Jane, her canine sidekick Sexy Beast, and a fun love-triangle subplot. Pamela's own beloved poodle, Murray, wants you to know that any similarities between himself and neurotic, high-strung Sexy Beast are purely coincidental.Pamela is the proud founder and past president of Long Island Romance Writers. Her books have won awards and sold millions of copies, but what excites her most is hearing from readers. Swing by and say hi at www.pamelaburford.com.
