Deadbeat Dad: A Dead Detective Novel (The Dead Detective Book 2)

Hard-boiled police detective Richelle Dadd is back. And in a whole world of fresh trouble. Still... well, dead as the result of a Gypsy curse, she must now face life as a single mom. Not only does Richelle have to worry about all the usual stuffâ€”her babyâ€™s health and well-being and keeping a roof over their heads by working a precarious dead-end jobâ€”thereâ€™s also her homicidal ex-boyfriend to fear, the father of her child, stalking them both day and night with the avowed intent of kidnapping baby Tamara.

Not to mention a mysterious Russian agent hell-bent on â€œrecruitingâ€ Richelle into a suspiciously perfect overseas job, plus thereâ€™s a vicious Ripper-style killing to investigate, one that ties in with the Black Rose Murders that terrorized the city nearly ninety years ago. Throw in the increasingly bizarre behavior of Richelleâ€™s ex-husband Devon and the fact that somebodyâ€™s bugged every inch of Richelleâ€™s houseâ€”and it all adds up to a recipe for disasterâ€¦

But once again, just as in the Dead Detective, the first book in the series, some very off-beat characters come to her aid. Thereâ€™s her love-sick ex-detective partner Malena Ayon, for one, and the long-dead ghost cop Bull McGuinness for another. And Richelleâ€™s equally dead new boyfriend, a dreamy World War I vet cut down in the prime of his youth. Last but hardly least, the roguish old Irish Traveler and scam artist Dicky Dadd, who claims to be Richelleâ€™s vanished father, but who may be something else entirely; a half-Gypsy wizard sent to watch over her by the kriss, or Romani High Council.

On the eve of a second â€˜Ripperâ€™ murder at a nearby theme park, Richelle and Malena must race to save an innocent victimâ€™s lifeâ€”along with that of Tamaraâ€”while battling shadowy forces both real and supernatural, as the story builds to a shattering and unexpected climax.
