The Ex Who Wouldn't Die

I loved the author’s snarky comments on the problems with an ex-husband that she can’t seem to shake despite his death. I loved her independent cat, who plays a role in her life, along with her observations about her quirky neighbor, who appears very security conscious and buttoned down in his personal life. Her café partner’s troubled past is revealed through the author’s eyes. 

When her scam-artist almost-ex-husband, Charley, saves her life after a motorcycle accident, Amanda almost forgives him. Then she discovers he was murdered hours before the crash. And he never went into the light—he’s been rejected. As a ghost, he cannot lie, and he cannot leave Amanda’s side. She’s stuck with him.

Amanda is desperate to solve the murder, clear herself as prime suspect, and get rid of Charley. Digging deep exposes more of Charley’s lies—the family he claimed died is loving and alive in a tiny Texas town; he was blackmailing both his killer and Amanda’s father the judge. Amanda… show more.
