Welcome to The Friday 56 hosted by Freda’s Voice.

 

This is a really fun meme!

The only rules are to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader and find a sentence or a few (no spoilers) that grabs you and post it.

My 56 for this week is from

Dying For The Past

Gumshoe Ghost Mystery #2

by TJ O’Connor

My 56

What bothered me the most was that despite all of my neat spirit-tricks and snappy detective skills, I had no idea what was going on.

Synopsis

Dying is not for the faint of heart . . . . . . Neither is the murder of a mysterious philanthropist with ties to the Russian mob and 1939 gangsters.

At an A-list charity ball organized by his wife, Angela, former detective Oliver “Tuck” Tucker is doing his best to prove that ghosts know how to have a good time–until a man is murdered in cold blood on the dance floor.

Never one to let a mystery go unsolved, Tuck is on the case with help from Angela and his former police-detective partners. Together, they must be the first to read “the book”–deceased gangster Vincent Calabrese’s journal that names names and reveals the dirty secrets of several modern-day spies.

As Tuck learns the book’s secrets, he begins to unravel his own family’s wayward past, leading to the question–is being a ghost hereditary? Even while chasing a killer, the biggest challenge Tuck must conquer is how to be back amongst the living . . . but not one of them.

I’m not going to be reviewing this until June but I don’t think I can wait much longer to start reading it.

A detective who’s a ghost. Sounds fun.

And while I was getting my 56 quote, I ran into plenty of characters and they have such fun names.

Looks like it’s going to be very good.
