The Reluctant Corpse — Dawn Dugle

I wanted a surprise party, not a zombie apocalypse.

For my 42nd birthday, I think I'm getting a surprise party.
But my best friend didn't invite me to her office for a party.
She wants me to find a missing corpse.

Faith Jackson, the Regional Medical Examiner, lost a body on her watch.
If I can't find the missing corpse, Faith could lose her job.
And a murder suspect will get off scot-free.
My name is Wysdom Ward.

The Reluctant Corpse is anything but the start of the zombie apocalypse. And the odds are good - I might end up in a dumpster before it's all said and done.

Must be Thursday.

The Reluctant Corpse is the first story in the Wysdom Ward Case Files.

These humorous mysteries feature a wise-cracking private detective over 40 who's dealing with menopause, Mom Guilt, and men telling her to calm down.

Scenes are not appropriate for readers under 18.
