"A funny, fast-paced, clever and unusual mystery that will have readers clamoring for more. Sheer delight." -- Carolyn Hart
"A thoroughly delightful debut. Bright, breezy, and witty. I couldn't put it down." -- Tamar Myers
The truth about what happened in 1949 went to Paul Fischer's grave… Too bad his body didn't!
Advertising copywriter Leigh Koslow doesn't pack heat -- just a few extra pounds. And she doesn't go looking for trouble. When she moved into her cousin Cara's refurbished Victorian house, she wasn't planning on discovering a corpse-certainly not one that had been embalmed ten years before. But as anyone in the small Pittsburgh borough of Avalon could tell her, her cousin's house has a history attached. A history dating back to two mysterious deaths in the summer of 1949.
Someone wants Leigh and Cara out of the house -- someone who has something to hide. But that someone doesn't know Leigh's impetuous cousin, and when Cara digs her heels in, Leigh looks to her old college chum, local policewoman Maura Polanski, for help. But the answers the trio find only point to more questions. Were the scandalous deaths of fifty years ago really an accident and a suicide? Or were they murder?
The nearer the women get to the truth, the more desperate someone becomes. Because some secrets are better off kept. Especially when they hit close to home!
Originally published in mass market paperback by NAL/Penguin, Putnam, Inc. in 1999. Large-Print Edition published by Thorndike, 2002. Copyright 1999 by Edie Claire

Never Buried
Leigh agreed to stay with her cousin Cara to help her stay calm as her pregnancy progresses. But excitement stalks them when a body turns up on the property of Cara’s historic home. The heart-racing events don’t stop there. Will the danger finally lead to Leigh and Cara giving up their amateur investigation? Or will their friend Maura, an actual police officer, save them from themselves? And why do events of five decades prior keep cropping up?
A fun read despite delving into darker topics like abuse and grave robbing. It probably helped that it took place in Pittsburgh, so my brain got excited when it could visualize where events were taking place.
Never Buried
Like the main character and plot ... read most in series — that tells you a lot.
Never Buried
So good to read a mystery that’s different.
