Instead, he now has a new calling, one he’s not entirely happy about… help the dead resolve their unfinished business so they can pass into the light, sounds simple right?

Wrong…

When the spirit of a sweet old lady suffering from Alzheimers follows him home he has no idea how to help her. When he finds out she’s been murdered by arsenic poisoning, a curiously outdated murder weapon, he once again finds himself tangled up in a murder investigation.

For Inspector Danny Hayes of New Scotland Yard, life couldn’t be better. After moving to London and meeting Tristan he’s ready to move their relationship to the next level, but something weird is going on with Tristan, he’s acting very strangely and with a killer on the loose he’s not taking any chances. He’s determined to discover whatever it is Tristan’s hiding from him.

Surrounded by a bunch of potentially murderous old ladies and aided by his sidekick, deceased drag queen and spirit guide in training, Dusty, Tristan must unravel the mystery of Mrs Delores Abernathy’s unfinished business and find the courage to share his deepest secret with the man he loves.

From author Vawn Cassidy, comes the second book in this funny and touching paranormal MM romance/dark comedy suspense series.

The narrator and author are a perfect match!

Love this series and can't wait for the next installment. Fun characters, love the plot, excellent narration.

 Truth comes to light in more ways than one.

A new ghost friend to help and a new mystery to unravel. Tristan second case might just be even more crazy than the first. 

The story was so much fun and had twist and turns that I didn’t expect. Who knew old ladies could hide so many skeletons in their closets. Dusty and Tristan are still absolutely hilarious and Tristan and Danny are still adorable. Its a great sequel and the teaser at the end makes me even more excited for the third case.

Drag Queens

There was not one thing that I did not like. It had the serious parts but mostly full of laughter. I came across this author and liked what I read. So the fun I would have listening at work made a plus sign for me.

fun!!

a fun exciting and intrinsic read. Fully kept my attention the whole read. I will be purchasing the rest of the series and enjoying them. I do wish the rest were on audio. the reader really makes them come alive

Fantastic

Dead Serious Case #2: Mrs. Delores Abernathy by Vawn Cassidy is a wonderful paranormal mystery romance. Joel Leslie did a wonderful job with the narration. Mrs. Delor Abernathy is the second book in Crawshanks Guide to the Recently Departed series. The story is entertaining, interesting, engaging, funny, enjoyable and more.

They are thinking about asking each other to move in but one thing is holding Tristan back and that is telling Danny he can see ghosts. Will Tristan get the courage to tell Danny he can see ghosts? What will happen after Tristan tells Danny? Will their relationship remain strong? listen to find out.

Lovely

I adore this series. The characters are great and the stories are entertaining. The narration is also very well done.

interesting

I enjoyed the storyline of this one but there were plotlines that I didn't like. The whole possession plotline I hated. The relationship time between the characters are limited in this book but the time spent with them two is spent on growing there relationship into something I can see lasting long-term. The issues between the couple is something that is believable so I was very interested in it's resolution. The thing that made me upset was that I expected a death in this book because during the middle it appears that one of the characters is seeing something and I can only imagine it's death or the grim reaper so I was expecting this person to die, it didn't happen and now I'm left wondering why would the character be seeing thing's they shouldn't especially when the only ones who can see death is the one who is supposed to die. I hope it's a plot point for a future book because if not it's a very disappointing plot I want to see happen for the development of the characters.

Excellent!

I love this series so much. The characters so much fun, and Joel does an amazing job bringing them to life. Very much looking forward to the next one.

Loved it

So glad I found this series, There’s a new ghost looking for help with her unfinished business, old ladies with so many skeletons, Dusty gets a unique opportunity and Tristin finally fills Danny in on his little secret. Good story, narration was great. Worth the credit.

Tristan and Danny Together Again

The gangs all back together on another case. One with little old ladies that you have to watch your back around. They are squirrely and deadly.
Danny and Tristan are still together and cute as ever.
