Spirit in Tow by Terry Segan is a Trick or Treat Bonanza pick #paranormalmystery #99cents #giveaway



Title: Spirit in Tow


Author: Terry Segan


Genre: Paranormal Mystery


Book Blurb:


Can she help a lost soul, jumpstart her love life, and dispatch her nagging mother’s spirit?


Marni Legend is about to publish her thirteenth novel. Gus Zuckerman has been hanging around since his death in nineteen-ninety-five. With her deadline looming and her recently deceased mother refusing to move on, can Marni dispatch both spirits and still have time for romance?


Armed with sarcasm and a warped sense of humor, her innate ability to stumble into awkward situations lands Marni in the midst of a car theft ring. As her circle of friends becomes populated with felons and possible murderers, the lines blur around whom she can trust.


Juggling a hot new beau with one hand and rekindling an old flame with the other, she may need to put on the brakes with one. Should she pick the probable criminal who may know Gus’s fate or play it safe with the sweetheart from her past? She’ll need more than her special abilities and quick wit to navigate the twists and turns of this paranormal mystery.


Excerpt:


The usual cadre of fishermen dotted the docks. If I boldly stepped onto the ship, would they know I didn’t belong? Could one be a sentry in disguise? I sauntered past, trying to catch a glimpse of any crew hanging about. The boat was in complete darkness.


Gus waited on my favorite perch. “It’s about time you showed up. Why aren’t you in all black so nobody can see you? God, you look like an amateur.”


“Perhaps because I am an amateur. I’m not the one with a criminal record.” I sat beside him.


“Who says I got a record? I ain’t never been locked up.”


It never occurred to me he’d never been caught. Maybe I should have consulted him—had he bothered to show up earlier. “This way I blend in with the tourists. If anybody comes, they’ll think nothing of a woman enjoying the fresh air.”


“You got a lot to learn.”


Breaking and Entering 101 wasn’t a class I wanted to take. “Enough about my lack of burglary skills. Go check the boat, and tell me if anybody is aboard.”


“Okay, okay. Stop barking orders.” He disappeared.


I tapped my foot on the wooden dock, concentrating on the staccato noise. It soothed my racing mind as it conjured all the things that could go wrong. My plan had two parts—break in and don’t get caught. Simple, right?

If you could dress up as anything or anyone this Halloween, what or who would it be and why?


There are times when the touch screen on my iPad or phone don’t acknowledge that I have a pulse, so I think it would be appropriate for me to dress as a vampire. Besides, what’s not to love about the flowing dresses and capes many of them wear. Maybe I better check to see if I have a reflection in the mirror before I get too into character though.


Explain why your featured book is a treat to read:


Not only does it have ghosts, which makes Spirit in Tow perfect for spooky season, Marni Legend’s humor will keep you laughing.

While situations don’t always go smoothly for Marni, okay, they go totally sideways most of the time, you’ll be entertained to the very end. Settle in with your favorite fall beverage and enjoy the haunted trail she’ll lead you on.

Author Biography:


Terry Segan, originally from Commack, NY, now resides in the desert where she’ll never require an ice scraper or snow shovel. The beach is her happy place, but any opportunity to travel soothes her gypsy soul. The stories conjured by her imagination while riding backseat on her husband’s motorcycle can be found throughout the pages of her paranormal mysteries. Growing up immersed in sarcastic humor and science fiction movies, Terry’s goals are to cause her readers to laugh out loud, cry with joy, or cower beneath the covers wondering if the noise under the bed was real or imagined.
