Synopsis
The latest novel in a thrilling cozy mystery series featuring Odessa Jones—a sudden widow juggling a promising catering business, a full-time real estate gig—and a psychic gift that leads her to solve mysteries whenever they appear to her—which is often. From the award-winning creator of Newark private eye Tamara Hayle, will appeal to fans of cozy mysteries and multicultural fiction. With pandemic-fearing city dwellers fleeing to the New Jersey suburbs, Risko Realty—and Odessa Jones—are having their best year ever. Finally on solid financial footing, Odessa is debt-free and looking forward to the future. But she doesn&’t need second sight to sense her new young co-worker, Anna Lee, is on edge--and straight-up terrified--in spite of her hot sales record and sunny, outgoing attitude. And when Anna is killed in a hit-and-run, Odessa sees immediately that it was no accident . . . It's soon clear that Anna was being stalked. But even with the help of family, friends—and Odessa&’s feisty cat, Juniper—Odessa is coming up with more questions than clues. Why was Anna avoiding influential real-estate mogul Emily Delbarton? Why is Delbarton&’s decidedly creepy brother so fixated on Anna? Did Anna make enemies through her previous job at the town&’s exclusive gentlemen&’s club? And can Odessa rule out her own ex-fiancé—who&’s back in her life with an astounding connection to Anna—and wanting a second chance? Finding the answers will come at an increasingly deadly cost—one Odessa&’s talents must somehow trap a killer to repay . . . Praise for A Glimmer of Death&“There's crispness in Wesley&’s plotting and sparkle in the supporting characters.&” --Los Angeles Times&“Wesley perfectly captures her protagonist&’s emotions, including the lingering melancholy she feels for her late husband. . . . Readers will hope to see a lot more of kind, empathetic Odessa.&” --Publishers Weekly
