Jeremiah “Jerry” Collins has never fit in. He’s always stood out. That’s exactly how he likes it. Now, as the owner of his own business who is trying to branch out and become the go-to caterer for the rich and entitled in Southeastern Michigan, he’s got his nose to the grindstone and is focused on his job. There’s just one little problem. Aisling Grimlock, his best friend, is going through an existential crisis after a near-death experience. Her husband asks Jerry to take her with him, make sure she has fun, and keep her entertained. Jerry can’t say no, so that means his job is on the line. On top of that, Aisling is convinced the house they’re working in is haunted. It’s a laugh a minute with mouthy best friends as they work to solve a mystery … and keep their actions a secret from a woman they’re convinced might be a murderer. It’s pretty much a standard weekend with the Grimlock family, complete with murder and mayhem. You won’t want to miss it. This is a short story in the Aisling Grimlock world. It is set after Only the Lost in the Death Gate series.

When I was a kid, I was torn between whether or not I was going to grow up and be the Incredible Hulk or Wonder Woman. I flirted with being a Jedi Knight for awhile, but I wasn't up for the intense travel associated with the gig. In my teens, I settled on being a writer—although I had no idea the effort that would entail. Not only am I a writer now, but I'm a writer in several different mediums. I'm a longtime newspaper reporter, an avid reader and a voracious science fiction fanatic.
