She saved Carraigfaire—but can she save her friends? Gethsemane Brown fought off an attack by a sleazy hotel developer who wanted to turn her Irish cottage into a tourist trap. Now she must face a vengeful ghost determined to exact revenge for her murder centuries ago. 

This ghost’s wrath spares no one—not Gethsemane’s students, Inspector Niall O’Reilly, fellow teacher Frankie Grennan, or a group of ghost hunters descended on Dunmullach to capture proof ghosts exist. Proof Gethsemane has to quash to keep Eamon, her resident ghost and friend, from becoming an internet sensation. 

As if a spiteful specter wasn’t bad enough, a crooked music reviewer turns up dead in the opera house orchestra pit, a famous composer is arrested for the crime, and Gethsemane must team up with a notorious true-crime author to clear his name. If she doesn’t, friends will die, a ghost she cares about will never know peace, and she’ll star in a final act gruesome enough for any opera.

*Author Top 5 & GIVEAWAY!* DEATH IN D MINOR by Alexia Gordon

DEATH IN D MINOR

by

ALEXIA GORDON

  
Genre: Paranormal Mystery / African American Sleuth

Publisher: Henery Press

Date of Publication: July 11, 2017

Number of Pages: 236

Scroll down for giveaway!

Gethsemane Brown, African-American musician and expatriate to an Irish village, solved a string of murders and got used to living with a snarky ghost. She can rest easy now. Right? Wrong. The ghost has disappeared, her landlord's about to sell to a developer, and her brother-in-law's come to visit. She scrambles to call her spectral roomie back from beyond and find a way to save the cottage from destruction. But real estate takes a backseat when her brother-in-law is accused of stealing a valuable antique. 

Gethsemane strikes a deal with an investigator to go undercover at a charity ball and snoop for evidence of a forgery/theft ring in exchange for the woman's help clearing him. At the party, she accidentally conjures the ghost of an eighteenth-century sea captain, then ends up the prime suspect in the party host’s murder. She races to untangle a web of phony art and stolen antiques to exonerate herself, then the killer targets her. Will she bring a murderer to justice, or will her encore investigation become her swan song?

PRAISE FOR DEATH IN D MINOR:

Gethsemane Brown is everything an amateur sleuth should be: smart, sassy, talented, and witty even when her back is against the wall. In her latest adventure, she's surrounded by a delightful cast, some of whom readers will remember from Gordon's award-winning debut and all of whom they won't forget. Gordon writes characters we want resurrected.

~ Cate Holahan, author of The Widower's

Wife and Lies She Told

Erstwhile ghost conjurer and gifted concert violinist Gethsemane Brown returns in this thoroughly enjoyable follow-up to last year’s Murder in G Major. Facing eviction from the historic seaside cottage she calls home, Gethsemane must clear her brother-in-law’s name - as well as her own - when a priceless artifact goes missing and the wealthy dowager to whom it belonged is “helped” over a high balcony railing.  With the help of a spectral sea captain she accidentally summoned, Gethsemane tries to unravel the mystery as the murderer places her squarely in the crosshairs.

~  Daniel J. Hale, Agatha Award-winning author

Author Alexia Gordon’s Top Five Soul Foods

My main character, Gethsemane Brown, and I are both from Virginia. My mother, who did most of the cooking when I was growing up, is from South Carolina. I grew up eating what today is called soul food. Back then, I just called it dinner. Until I went "up north" to college, I didn't realize my mom's style of cooking had a special name or that certain dishes could be prepared any way other than the way she made them. Some of the culinary variations I discovered expanded my outlook and prompted me to be more adventurous with my dietary repertoire. But there are some foods that, to this day, I say if you're not fixing them Mom's way, you're fixing them wrong.

1. Macaroni and cheese. It has to be baked. No goopy, runny sauce made from a processed cheese-like substance, thanks. Baked. With real cheddar. In an oven. Preferably in a Corningware Cornflower Blue casserole dish.

2. Collards. They aren't "winter greens" and they aren't meant to be gussied up with a bunch of nouvelle cuisine nonsense. Toss them in a pot with some fat back and boil them forever or until they're nice and soft, whichever comes first. Serve them with some vinegar or some hot sauce and sop the pot likker up with your…

3. Corn bread. No sugar allowed. It's not a kids' breakfast cereal.

4. Sweet tea. The sugar goes in while the tea is hot. I honestly did not know that "sweet" tea was a thing until I stopped for lunch in a North Carolina restaurant while I was on the medical residency interview circuit (which means I was about 25 years-old) and a waitress asked me if I wanted "sweet or unsweet". I'd always thought "sweet tea" was just "tea". Because why would anyone drink iced tea without sugar?

5. Pecans. Actually, fix these anyway you want. You can't go wrong with pecans. But pronounce the word the right way. "Puh-cahns," not "pee-kans". But don't talk with your mouth full.
