Publisher's summary

A haunted church. A ghastly death. Can Verity clear up the case before she’s buried way over her head?

Verity Long would really like a day off. Between uncovering the culprit who capped her gangster ghost housemate and dodging the bomb her boyfriend just dropped on their relationship, her spiritual calling has gotten complicated. But when she steps out for a little fun at a church fundraiser, she has another mystery on her hands when a family friend plunges from the bell tower.

With her pet skunk and a spectral mobster buddy in tow, Verity charges back into the world of furious phantoms. But as she follows a shocking trail of clues through a dangerous speakeasy, a possessed movie theatre, and a spooky mob safehouse, she could end up sleeping with the ghostly fishes.

Can Verity lay everything to rest before a mysterious murderer reads her last rites?

Rating: clean and wholesome

Paranormal cozy mystery romance (with a cute pet skunk!)

Awesome Southern series

Since finding this series I have listened to all the books. The narration is really good. Since I am a Carolina Girl it warms my heart to hear the sweet Southern accents. I don't have a heavy one so I like hearing them! This one had me crying in many places. 😭 Just happy tears mostly. Can't say much because don't want to give away good story. Hopefully there will be more in this series!! MANY MORE.

Southern Bred and Dead

This one is so great! I love the way Angie Fox fills her mysteries with humor as well as the twists and turns you often find in mystery series. She tied up several loose ends for both Frankie and Verity. Excellent audiobook skillfully narrated by Tavia Gilbert! ❤

Amazing and exciting books

I really enjoyed this book and the narrator was wonderful. I probably should have given an review on each book but I couldn’t put them down until this one. A must listen to series. Can’t wait for the next two books.

This needs to be a tv series

Omg I love this series! This one was a little slow moving at first but boy did it build to an awesome climax! Tavia and Angie are an awesome team. This series really needs to be a tv series or movie series. Everyone would love it!

(Spoilers) I loved that Ellis and Verity are finally getting into fights. Makes their relationship more believable and I def see both sides. I love the direction Beau’s character has taken. I really wish they had discussed his reaction to his murderous gf a few books back! I’d love to know how long he and Verity were actually together and how old Frankie was when he died. Seems like Verity and Beau were together under a year and maybe Frankie was close to 30.

I love hearing more about Verity and Frankie’s families. I loved the introduction of Maybelle and Chastity in this story and I totally saw the Maybelle twist coming. Not bc it was obvious but as an english major and aspiring writer, I have an eye for groundwork. Maybelle was hilarious and I hope to see her interacting with Frankie more.

The truth about Lou absolutely blew me away. So sad and beautiful! Really felt for everyone. The OG pastor, the gravedigger, all those poor forgotten souls that Sal brought there. I loved that Verity was able to contact Ray too. Frankie’s growth was amazing in this book! I hope his ghostly family sticks around.

I highly recommend this series, especially to those who love the supernatural. I can’t wait for more 👻

I've listened to the whole series...

And this book stands out as one of the best plots and stories within it! This was one that I looked forward to getting back to when I had to lay it down. And, I loved the ending (who doesn't love a "cozy" ending?).
