Trixie doesn’t really mind All Capone’s ghost hanging around her building. It’s what he left behind that threatens her!

Even if she’s not interested in Al’s legacy, she can’t keep other people from wanting to find it.

Trixie’s ready to open her tearoom and gift shop on the second floor of the reputedly haunted Quimby Building. She’s established an uneasy truce with Police Chief Doug Everton--after all, they have a mutual secret to guard. Her high school chum Rudy has his life back together. Candace King is determined to make Dreamland appreciate its history. Danny Jefferson has discovered a hidden talent for photography but manages to take all the wrong pictures at the right time. And Trixie’s and Mitch’s budding friendship is at the point of blooming. Unfortunately, they’re all wrong in believing the town’s recent dirty dealings are over and done with.

Enter a new assortment of unsettling characters: two FBI agents, one of whom may be rogue; Ross Carrow, Rudy’s ex-army buddy, who runs the Moonlight Tattoo Parlor when he’s not out stirring up trouble; and Sean Mercer, a forensic anthropologist whose curiosity may well end up killing more than the proverbial cat. The second floor of the Quimby Building, once the Castle Casino and soon to be Trixie’s Treasures, becomes a volcano of erupting secrets and dangerous doings.

Can Trixie dig in her heels one more time? Does she even want to? Find out in Desperate Deception in Dreamland.

Scared to death--can it really happen? Trixie may find out, but will she live to tell the tale?

Trixie's not sure she wants to hang around to find out!

Just when Trixie thinks her rocky start in Dreamland may be smoothing out, her mother announces she’s returning to open a bed and breakfast in the old family home. Maybe Trixie can deal with Lucy, but she’s not even going to try to deal with City Council member Daphne Carter’s toothy son Alan who seems to think he knows better than Trixie what’s good for the historic building bequeathed to her by her grandfather. And she’s not sure her definition of moving on is exactly what Mitch Langley has in mind. They’ve been best friends since she arrived, but is either one of them ready for more?

Between the new police chief, the paranormal team Candace King brings in to hunt for ghosts in Al Capone’s old bootlegging tunnels, Danny Jefferson’s candid photos which are definitely worth more than a thousand words, and forensic anthropologist Sean Mercer’s insatiable curiosity, Trixie can’t catch a break.

And someone somewhere has a bone to pick with Trixie’s relatives, most of whom are long dead. But Trixie’s still alive, at least for the time being.

Trixie's beginning to think coming back to Dreamland wasn't such a good idea after all. Find out for yourself when you scroll up and grab a copy of Ghostly Gambit in Dreamland.

What's the ghost of Al Capone doing in Dreamland, Arkansas?

Trixie's willing to live and let live, but Al doesn't seem to be so tolerant!

Trixie Blake barely remembers her small hometown or the grandfather who left her the Quimby Building on the antiquated town square. Newly-widowed and at loose ends, she treks to Dreamland to look for a fresh start. It takes less than twenty-four hours to discover she’s in the path of a shadowy development company’s plans to take over all of Dreamland’s historic downtown. That is, if they can persuade the three hold-outs to sell and move on. When Trixie decides to become hold-out number four, her already precarious situation deteriorates rapidly.

She finds an odd assortment of allies: the Drummond sisters, two feisty senior citizens who run the Sunshine Style Shoppe on the first floor of Trixie’s building; Rudy James, a former high school classmate (now the proprietor of the Twilight Bar and Grill); Glen Ellard, the long-time mayor who owns the town’s only hardware store; Hetty Green, a retired teacher who keeps her fingers on the pulse of the town; Danny Jefferson, who doesn’t let his Down Syndrome define him; Mitch Langley, whose connection to the development company is too close for comfort; and Candace King, self-appointed head of the Dreamland Historic Association, who knows the town’s dark secrets.

On top of everything else, Trixie’s great-grandfather’s buddy Al Capone seems to be still in residence on the Quimby Building’s second floor. Does he also get out and about to vandalize Trixie’s hotel room, slash her tires, and make threatening phone calls? And why does Police Chief Doug Everton want Trixie out of town sooner than later?

Has Al met his match in Trixie Blake? Or is he just a bystander in a seedier plot? Scroll up and grab a copy of Lethal Legacy in Dreamland today.
