A cryptic murder. A complete lack of suspects. Can our psychic sleuth find a lead or is she spinning her wheels?

Mitzy Moon is brimming with excitement. Planning an anniversary surprise, she’s working overtime to hide the details of a luxurious European vacation from her husband. But before she can book a single ticket, a shockingly suspicious murder lands in her lap.

With only a flimsy lead, Mitzy heads undercover into the local roller derby league. And though she rallies her entitled feline and meddling Ghost-ma to help hunt down clues, she fears if she can’t break out of the pack, this bout will turn deadly.

Can Mitzy find the killer, or will this be her final lap around the track?

Wheels and Dirty Deals is the sixth book in the hilarious paranormal cozy mystery series, Harper and Moon Investigations, a spinoff from the popular Mitzy Moon Mysteries. If you like snarky heroines, supernatural intrigue, and a dash of romance, then you’ll love Trixie Silvertale’s twisty mystery.

EXCERPT

A mournful sigh escapes my lips. “My mother was amazing, though.”

“I have no doubt.” Ghost-ma claps her hands as though I’ve given the best Oscar acceptance speech of the night. “She raised you!”

“She barely had a chance to raise me. I was so little when I lost her. And then almost seven years in foster care! It’s a wonder I didn’t end up on the wrong side of the law.”

As though the mere suggestion of law enforcement can summon him, the secret bookcase door slides open, and in saunters the tall drink of water that is my smart, sexy, somewhat dreamy husband, Erick Harper.

Grams squeals. “The vacation!” She flies toward the computer, too frantic to summon enough corporeal form to click the mouse.

Thankfully, Erick can’t hear Isadora, and my fiendish feline is a step ahead.

Pyewacket leaps from the floor to the desktop in a single blur of tan, furry excellence. His powerful paw smashes the mouse as though it were a living creature, and, after completing his amazing act, the wise caracal flops down on the keyboard, obscuring most of the screen with his broad head and black-tufted ears.

Erick gazes from Pyewacket to me and chews the inside of his cheek, as his luscious blue eyes survey the situation with seasoned expertise. “If I was still sheriff of Birch County, I would definitely suspect a cybercrime underway.”

Eager to change the subject, I rush toward him, tripping over my own foot and falling into his arms like one of those damsels in a bodice-ripper novel.

He chuckles, and his voice drops an octave. “You don’t have to ask me twice, Mrs. Moon.”

Despite my status as a married woman, my cheeks flush with heat. “Knock it off, Harper. I tripped, as per usual, and you happened to be the beneficiary. There was no salacious plot.”

Of course, the minute I deny a salacious plot — Oh, the human mind is a powerful visualizer!

His arms slip tighter around my waist, and his soft, pouty lips curve into a mischievous grin as he leans in.

Ghost-ma’s chuckle ruins the moment, and I wriggle away in a fluster of embarrassment. “As you might’ve guessed, we’re not alone.”
