LIFE AT THE COFFIN JOINT Deadwood Undertaker, Book 1

With the first installment of the Deadwood Undertaker series, the authors rope listeners into 1870s Deadwood, a wintry mining landscape rich with supernatural trouble and adventure. Jason Culp's crisp, purposeful narration is well suited to the character of Clem Johanssen, a formidable undertaker who is embroiled in a paranormal mystery. When Boone and Rabbit ride through town on the trail of their missing uncle, they stumble into Clem's good graces. Culp's endearing characterizations strengthen the atmosphere, creating a world in which the perils of investigation and murder can be tempered by a hearty meal and the friendship of clever townfolk. While Clem and her new friends battle against the rising danger, Culp's humor and deft pacing keep listeners engaged. For fans of bold characters, snowy settings, and cross-genre escapades.
