Dead Clowns Tell No Tales… When the circus comes to town for a charity performance, Detective Ronan O’Mara hears rumors of a clown who was murdered thirty years ago during a stop in Boston. After the clown’s ghost appears to tell his tale, it's up to Ronan and company to find the killer. All he has to do is overcome his paralyzing fear of clowns. Piece of cake, right? Psychic Tennyson Grimm is being plagued by dark nightmares that make no sense. Each time he wakes, Ten is scared out of his mind and shouting his daughter’s name. Unwilling to talk about the possible cause of these night terrors, he shoves the bad dreams aside to welcome his brother’s family to town. What better way to entertain them than by bringing them to the circus performance? Ronan faces his childhood fear and reluctantly dives into the cold case murder of Jumping Jack the clown. He’s willing to do whatever it takes to solve Jack’s murder, even if that means immersing himself in grease paint and red rubber noses to do it. When Tennyson realizes his nightmare is tied to the murder, it’s an all out sprint to catch the killer before another clown bites the dust.

Sick of the slogging rat-race of her 9-5 job, Pandora Pine put pen to paper (literally!) to make her ambition of becoming a romance novelist a reality. She cut her teeth in the dog-eat-dog world of fanfiction, still dreaming of the day when she would be a published author. She lives in Massachusetts with her blabbermouth muse who’ s a fan of middle of the night plot twists. In her spare time, Pandora fancies herself an amateur nature photographer. She enjoys mucking around in swamps, hiking through the woods and crawling around on her hands and knees in her backyard seeking out the perfect shot. Pandora is a fan of roadside seafood shacks and always thinks Mexican food is a good idea at the time. Some of Pandora’s favorite things are chocolate, writing longhand with purple pens and handsome men falling in love with each other. Don't miss Pandora’s seductive new novel coming soon to an e-reader near you.
