A Case of Death in Disguise — Becki Willis

Good for what ails you, this quick, feel-good mystery is sure to chase away the gloom and doom, and challenge your 'whodunit' skills. ER Nurse Laurel Benson and Police Detective Cade Resnick have a sure cure for boredom. There's never a dull moment in the lively college town of College Station, Texas. Book 2 is no exception, especially with a bonus appearance by Granny Bert from The Sisters, Texas Mystery Series. On the last home Game Day of Aggie football, a patient is admitted to the ER, and he's not just any patient. Laurel recognizes the sixty-something-year-old in the Captain Courageous costume (no, it's not Halloween) as the CEO of Texas General Hospital's most vocal competitor, Brazos Valley Methodist. He's also married to Cade's superior, College Station Assistant Chief of Police Corinda-Addison Fisk. His first visit of the day is of a 'personal' nature; the second leaves him fighting for his life. One of Laurel's superpowers is that she interprets Mumbo-Jumbo, those indecipherable mutterings of patients' in the direst of situations. Before he's rushed to surgery, Dr. Fisk tells Laurel something that is sure to put her at odds with the handsome detective and make their elusive first date even less likely to happen. When the doctor dies, Cade has a murder on his hands and Laurel must tell him what she knows. Never mind that the cowboy detective makes her heart jingle as surely as his spurs; their careers seem determined to pull them apart, one patient and one murder at a time. From the best-selling author of The Sisters, Texas Mystery Series, Mirrors Don't Lie Series, and The Spirits of Texas Cozy Mysteries, enjoy this new line of quick, feel-good cozies.
