Rockford
Peadlebody dies in a train wreck while traveling with his family, (a
rather dysfunctional lot of half-blood vampires) after a flood in
Mississippi washes their home away. Once his brother Gerald, his wife
Ginger, and son Raymond reach grandpa's estate in Ohio, they are
surprised by the news that grandaddy Benjamin Peadlebody has also
died. They are now heirs to the infamous Peadlebody manor and all its
peculiarities, including the butler, a reserved, tattooed, muscle-man
named Richard Cottlebone,

It
seems fishy to Gerald that two untimely deaths in the family happened
within a week. Yes, Rockford's demise was of his own doing, but
Benjamin's? Perhaps the butler, knows more than he's letting on?

To
prove himself worthy, since he failed to live up to old Benjamin's
standards when he was alive, Gerald goes about to unravel the thread
of Papa's death. No help comes from Ginger. She's too busy trying to
un-vampire herself. And Raymond is in love, but not with his
relatives. Gerald soon discovers solving a murder mystery meets with
a stone cold reception.

She
loves a tale that ignites imaginations, strengthens friendships,
spurs courage and applauds honor. Though she targets her stories for
young adults, her books are enjoyed by all ages.
