I’ll keep this short and sweet (like me, LOL!) since it’s summer time here and I will melt if I stand still for too long.
Twisty Tussles and Rollicking Romps … The Morgan sisters are back!
My new ebook is finally out! Whew! Many thanks to you for your patience over the last year as Sam and I dealt with some struggles that wore us out and made focusing on writing tough. But we are through the other side of the wringer now and hitting the keys daily!
While you are having fun on the page hanging out with Claire, Kate, Ronnie, Mac, and more, Sam and I are currently working our buns off to wrap up The Backside of Hades (Book 4 in the Deadwood Undertaker series). They say there’s no rest for the wicked, and apparently Sam and I were pretty darn bad in our past lives. It’s a wonder our cats even hang out with us being as uppity as they are about whose company they keep.

When someone is divorced from a pain in the ass, they’re supposed to stay that way … At least that’s what Ronnie Morgan had hoped when she dumped her husband. But then he rolled over on some bloodthirsty criminals. With him tucked away in prison, they’ll settle for taking their revenge on her. Fudge!
When someone is temporarily insane—Kate Morgan is not crazy, dang it! A few twitches and some mad laughter aside, she has a gut feeling her family is in danger. Big danger. The kind that ends with a lot of blood. Now, it’s her job to keep them alive.
When someone is dead and buried, they’re supposed to stay that way … Aren’t they? Claire Morgan thought so, but now she suspects the dead guy whose treasures she’s been digging up is not only breathing, but spying on her, too. Crap!
The Morgan sisters are back for another round of twisty tussles and rollicking romps!

Ann and Sam’s 10th Fan Party at the Homestake Adams Research and Cultural Center with special guest star C.M. Wendelboe, author of the Spirit Road Mystery Series and the Bitter Wind Mystery Series. Door prizes, food, drinks, and plenty of fun for all included!

If you don’t have a gmail account, send me an email at anncharlesauthor@gmail.com and let me know how many people will be attending, including the names so we can make name tags ahead of time.)

For all of you Violet Parker fans, there will be more crazy adventures coming in early 2023, if all goes as planned.

I am trying to get the 3rd Dig Site book into my schedule for summer 2023 (have to fit Deadwood Mystery Series #13 in first). I’m looking forward to heading back down to Mexico to see what’s happening in the jungle!
Happy Almost August!
