Synopsis:
Former society wife Grace Cassidy is learning to live on the minimum wage she earns as a bed & breakfast inn-sitter. Grace finds her cat’s bloody paw prints leading away from a bathtub and wants to run for her life. But she can’t. Her 19-year-old son is accused of pushing his pregnant girlfriend down a flight of concrete steps and she won’t abandon him.Read an excerpt:
Blood colored paw prints trailed from the white tile bathroom onto the faux Oriental rug in the bedroom where Grace stood. The cat-feet marks immobilized Grace. She closed her eyes and prayed that she had been claimed by stress-induced insanity, that there were no dark-red blots before her eyes, but a hallucination. A nice long rest in a mental hospital didn’t sound too bad. Anything except another dead body in this inn where she worked.Author Bio:

My review;The Corpse Who Walked in the Door is one surprise twist after another. Grace and her best friend Theodora are a great pair of characters. Grace has had to rely on herself for the last few months and she is not at all used to it. She has to stay where she is to find out what has really been happening to her son. One mystery leads to another. I really liked this storyline. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book by Partners in Crime Tours for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
