Gone is gone. . . right?

While serving as nurses in a remote village, twins Lillian and Lisa learn their grandmother has died under mysterious circumstances. Arriving home weeks after the funeral, they discover their younger sister, Meg, has just helped solve a nefarious plot responsible for the elderly woman’s death.

But that’s not even the crazy part. Apparently, Grams helped solve her own murder, having materialized from “the other side” to give Meg a hand.

Now Grams is hanging around with a quirky host of dearly departed relatives and friends, and they’ve noticed something strange: the girls’ other grandmother, Willowmina Garrison, presumed dead for ten years, has never been spotted on “the other side.”

Is she dead or not?

With Meg planning her wedding, it’s up to the twins to join forces with the dearly departed to uncover the truth about Willowmina.

If the Garrison girls think life in their sleepy hometown of Elk City, Colorado, can ever return to normal, they’re in for a big surprise.

The Dearly Departed Series of cozy mysteries follows four sisters as they make unexpected discoveries about their town, their family, and themselves. In Cross Contamination, Meg is aided by her recently deceased grandmother—and a colorful cast of ghostly kinfolk and friends—as she discovers that dead doesn’t always mean gone. In Double Cross, twins Lisa and Lillian learn that missing doesn’t mean lost, and in Cross Over, Jessica discovers that being fiercely independent doesn’t have to mean isolated and alone. Set in the small Colorado town of Elk City, The Dearly Departed Series is a delightful romp through the mysteries of love, loss, and life.

Dead is dead. . . right?

Meg has lost too many people in her life, but the latest is the hardest: her feisty, beloved grandmother Eloise has died of a mysterious virus. . . and materialized in Meg’s closet.

Once Meg gets over the shock of seeing Grams, she finds herself embroiled in a world peopled by the dearly departed who have joined forces to solve the mystery of Eloise’s untimely death. Together, this “Ghost Support Group” and Meg race against time before the strange virus claims more victims.

But events take an even more sinister turn when one of Meg’s co-workers turns up murdered and a local doctor is attacked and left for dead. In the midst of great peril, Meg and her cohorts try to unwind the tangle of intrigue and, in the process, discover that the entire town is in mortal jeopardy.
