A photo assignment at the cemetery leads Callie Cassidy to a corpse—this one above ground. Now, her search for the killer unearths some long-buried secrets…
Callie’s mother Maggie, a notorious hobby jumper, has embarked on a new pursuit—grave rubbing. When she recruits her daughter to photograph her first endeavor at the local cemetery, Callie brings golden retriever Woody and tabby cat Carl along for the outing. It’s a breathtaking autumn morning in Rock Creek Village, Colorado. Golden aspen leaves rustle in the cool breeze, and the air is filled with the scent of pine. What could go wrong on a day like this?
Then, a ghostly woman emerges from the trees, bleeding from a head wound and claiming to have no memory of how she arrived, or even who she is. Maggie quickly identifies her as a woman who disappeared from the village forty years ago—without a trace.
If that’s not enough intrigue, Woody disobeys her and sprints deeper into the cemetery. When Callie catches up to him, he is sitting sentinel at the tombstone of a recently deceased villager. And behind the stone, a man lies on the ground—with a pickaxe jutting from his neck.
Callie recognizes him as the low-level mobster who has been dating her best friend Tonya’s mother—and they’d been having problems. Did Tonya’s mother kill the man? Could it have been the mysterious woman? Or maybe someone with ties to his crime family?
Callie can’t resist investigating—and this time, Detective Raul Sanchez welcomes her assistance. Because if they can’t solve the crime soon, the town may be facing grave consequences…

I love both cats and dogs, but prefer cats. Thank you for this chance!
This series has both—both smart, but the cat is probably more savvy! Best of luck to you! —Lori
I love both cats and dogs.
Dog
Dogs are my favorite. I have adopted rescues which has brought me great joy and happiness. They are smart, sweet, loving and devoted.
That’s the best—such a kindness to those loving animals! —Lori

Don’t tell Carl (the cat in my series), but I think I am fondest of dogs as well…They just love you so much… —Lori
Thank you so much for hosting me! Can’t wait to give away a copy of GRAVEN IMAGES. Happy to answer any questions your readers might have. —Lori
Cats and Rhodesian Ridgebacks. We had an adorable squirrel monkey too.
Wow, a squirrel monkey? Maybe I’ll have one of those in my next series. What fun! I had to look up Rhodesian Ridgebacks—they’re huge! — Lori
I love both cats & dogs…but I have to admit I would choose to have a dog first (partially because my hubby is not very fond of cats).
Mine isn’t either. Not sure why, though. Just reputation, I think. Or maybe I’m too much like a cat and he doesn’t want to handle another such personality…lol. —Lori

Cats
They are so smart…most of them, anyway! — Lori
