Missed

After personal tragedy strikes, American mystery author Clare Towlson hops the first plane available, hoping to escape her painful memories. Landing in England, she joins her seatmates’ pilgrimage to tour Agatha Christie’s holiday home in Devon. There Clare takes an accidental tumble down the stairs, loses consciousness, and awakens to a broken rib, a head injury, and an encounter with what appears to be the specter of the great Dame herself. Shaken, Clare rushes back to the safety of familiar territory, but she’s pursued by her unsettling new ghostly companion. Worse, Clare lands in the middle of a real murder investigation, one in which she’s a viable suspect and in need of spiritual help to find the real killer and avoid revisiting the traumas of her past. From Lisa Bork, author of Counting on You, Discovering Nowhere, and the Broken Vows Mystery Series: For Better, For Murder (a 2009 Agatha Award Finalist for Best First Novel), For Richer, For Danger, In Sickness and In Death, and To Love and To Perish.
