Resumen del Editor

The second Duckworth novel is "a wild and wacky thriller that's like sharing a roller-coaster ride with a suave maniac." (Publishers Weekly review).

Morris Duckworth can't get over Massimina, or Mimi, as he likes to refer to her. But then, he should have thought of that before he kidnapped and killed her. Only now, living in Verona and married to Mimi's sister, does he appreciate how much he misses her and how blindly he has stumbled into a trap of fate. Struggling to adjust to his good fortune, with a lavish house and cushy job, our unsavory hero finds that his new success is rife with tribulation: not least his pushy bride's staggering sexual appetite and his nosy brother-in-law's meddling questions. So when he visits Mimi's grave and her charming photograph winks at him, he's ready for her advice.

Mimi seems to be suggesting a path to Christian redemption: he will help the poor African immigrants of Verona. But is his sudden altruism genuine or a cover for further malfeasance? And why, despite his apparent sincerity, are those who get in his charitable way so prone to "accidents?" The dark and funny sequel to Cara Massimina, Mimi's Ghost is the ultimate comedy of self-justification.

Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for listeners interested in fiction - novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times best-seller or a national best-seller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

A Farce Like Arsenic and Old Lace

An unredeemable and unapologetic protagonist commits crimes while living a posh life in Italy. Great fun. A sequel

Note: if you dislike sexual themes, this book is not for you.
