Right to Remain Silent

YOU ONLY DIE TWICE

Deaf journalist Connor Westphal just broke a huge story for her California Gold Country, newspaper, the Eureka! Old Sparkle Bodie has finally passed away--only to send local tongues wagging by coming back to life at the funeral home! Rushed to the hospital, Sparkle is dead again within the hour. But this time, someone's used a pillow to smother any chance of a resurrection.

Most folks agree that Sparkle was pretty unpopular. She was Flat Skunk's most vocal opponent of plans to develop the town. When she organized a Bodie genealogy, she wittingly revealed a few embarrassing family secrets--ancient history most people would rather forget. When Sparkle's deaf son is accused of her murder, Connor is determined to use her investigative skills to find the real killer. But as tempers flare and bodies pile up, Connor is afraid that the story of her life may ultimately be the death of her.
