Mortuary cosmetician Callie Parrish is overwhelmed by the discovery of several skulls followed by sudden deaths in small, coastal St. Mary, SC. The last thing Callie expects in the midst of this turmoil is for her Great Dane, Big Boy, to disappear. Will Callie interpret the clues to what's happening in time to save herself from drastic danger?"--Back cover.
Mortuary cosmetologist Calamine “Callie” Parrish likes to end her days in a relaxing way—with a Moon Pie, an episode of Six Feet Under, and a few chapters in one of her mystery novels. But right now she’s putting in some overtime at the undertaker’s. When the body of up-and-coming car dealer Bobby Saxon comes into Middleton’s Mortuary with a hypodermic hidden in the neck, Callie realizes there’s a killer on the loose trying to bury his crimes. With a list of suspects that includes Bobby’s dueling ex-wives, rival car dealers, and even her own boss, Callie must unearth the culprit—or she might be next. Callie’s got a knack for making the dead look their best. But no amount of concealer can cover up murder.
Mortuary cosmetologist Callie Parrish is thrilled to pack up her banjo and take off with her best friend Jane for a bluegrass festival on Surcie Island. A whole weekend of her favorite kind of music, Gullah food, and fun in the sun is just what Callie needs to erase the memory of being locked in a casket last fall. Somehow, she just can’t seem to leave her work behind her. Little Fiddlin’ Fred might be tiny in stature, but he’s huge in the bluegrass world. When his dead body tumbles out of a bass case on stage, the festival erupts in chaos. Local cops advise Callie not to get involved, but when Jane discovers a second corpse—and then disappears—Callie has no choice. Her sleuthing leads her to a widow too busy flirting to mourn, a fiddler too eager to fill in, and a water witch convinced he can find whatever treasures might be hiding under the sand, but she’ll also learn that on an island, you tend to keep going in circles.
Callie Parrish escapes her duties as a mortuary cosmetologist to hang out with friends, Jane and Rizzie, at the county fair, but their fun screeches to a standstill when Rizzie's Maum breaks her hip. Then Callie discovers an injured man in a storage space-worse than hurt, he's dead. Graffiti pops up all over town-even on coffins at the funeral home. Callie hates seeing spray-painted threats against her and her new man, but she's more concerned with who shot Dr. Sparrow. Does his obnoxious bedside manner justify murder? His trophy wife is devastated by the doctor's death for too many wrong reasons. When Rizzie's teenaged brother is accused of homicide, Callie's thrown smack in the middle of an investigation that could land her in a casket with her name sprayed on it. A Callie Parrish Mystery #5
Callie Parrish and her friend Jane love Christmas and decorating and presents during the holiday season, but they never expected to find Santa in person--murdered and dumped under the tree they decorated.

In this warm-hearted debut rom-com, a young woman returns home to run her family’s casket business and falls in love with a seemingly perfect stranger. But there’s just one problem . . . he works for Death. “A charming, original love story about grief. I loved it.”—Sophie Cousens, New York Times bestselling author of This Time Next Year Nora thought she was finished with Rabbittown, Alabama, for good. But an unexpected tragedy turned her life upside down, and she’s found herself back in her tiny hometown running the family casket business. There aren’t exactly a lot of prospects for a single woman in her thirties in a place like Rabbittown. Until Nora Clanton’s ordinary, casket-selling day is interrupted by a handsome stranger wandering into her shop and asking for directions—as well as a date. Garrett Bishop seems like the ideal guy. He’s thoughtful, he’s kind, and he has a lucrative job as a logistics coordinator, for which he seems to have a passion. She’s not totally sure what “logistics” entails, but she knows it means long hours, lots of travel, and urgent calls in the middle of the night. When a few of Rabbittown’s residents suddenly pass away—a heart attack here, a car crash there—and Garrett is spotted at the scenes of, well, all of the deaths, his frustratingly vague job description starts to become increasingly . . . suspicious. What is it that Garrett actually does for a living? He’s a logistics coordinator for Death. When Nora discovers the truth, she is unable to reconcile the wonderful man she knows with the unthinkably cruel job he loves. Will she ever be able to understand how he can do what he does, or will she have to lay her best chance at love to rest? Casket Case is the heartfelt story of a small-town girl who feels surrounded by death—literally and figuratively. This clever, endearing, and romantic debut explores how love and loss are forever intertwined . . . but death might not be as scary as it seems.
