A Corpse Before the Wedding Vows

Imogene Dalmat cannot say "I do" without fainting.

Discovering a corpse at the ceremony does not help.

Her new job at the Chilton Detective Agency is supposed to be quiet enough for her to recover from past adventures and prepare to marry undercover F B I agent Frank Bachman. Instead, a flamboyant Chicago psychic storms into the office with a warning: wealthy widow Lillian Gooch will be murdered if she attends a spiritual-wedding convention in Grand Cayman.

Imogene accepts the case before her boss can refuse it.

Lillian intends to ask her deceased husband for permission to marry her first love. Celebrity medium Magnificent Monty promises to deliver the answer through séances, salt caves, flotation chambers, and several expensive upgrades.

Imogene suspects fraud. Mystic Zenith predicts death.

Grand Cayman offers Imogene and Frank another chance to exchange secret vows-until a body floats onto the beach wearing Lillian's handmade lace necklace.

The victim is the psychic.

Lillian admits to fighting with her shortly before the death. Her new fiancé moves the body. Monty keeps financial files on wealthy clients. His assistant knows more than she should. And a man identical to Imogene's dead first husband has followed her from Chicago to the island.

To protect Lillian and save her own marriage, Imogene must untangle a murder staged as an accident, a family identity stolen years earlier, and a criminal plot hiding beneath the island paradise.

Funny, romantic, and packed with handmade clues, A Corpse Before the Wedding Vows is a craft cozy mystery featuring an anxious amateur sleuth, a secret-agent fiancé, a murdered psychic, crochet evidence, Grand Cayman danger, and wedding vows that refuse to go according to plan.
