Caught Dead to Write

By Lynn Cahoon
Caught Dead to Write by Lynn Cahoon digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

From New York Times bestselling author, Lynn Cahoon, comes another Cat Latimer cozy mystery.

Cat Latimer found her author career and her love of writing in a paranormal academy series so when the writers retreat gets a group of all paranormal authors, she's over the moon. However, a local professor is causing waves since she doesn't think the retreat or the authors it hosts is literary enough to be sponsored by Covington College anymore. And she'd taken her complaints to the Dean of the English department.

Cat knows she'll have to fight for Covington's sponsorship, but this week, she's going to enjoy her retreat and the quirky guests. Shauna's put together a coz-play part for the guests in conjunction with a local writers group that meets at the local bookstore. However, the night is cut short when they find the literary professor dressed up as a zombie in the barn. But the professor isn't just playing dead. Can Cat solve the mystery before she's framed in the investigation and Uncle Pete arrests her for the murder?

Caught Dead to Write Reviews

3.5
“Another fun installment in a great cozy series. I really like this series overall, the theme etc. is right up my book loving alley. In book 8 one of the Carrington professor's is found dead in Cat's barn after a party at the start of one of her writing retreats. The mystery was good although not my favorite. There was also a lot of relationship drama between Cat and Seth which was an added element to the story. As I didn't remember them having any issues in the last book-that jarred me a bit. Not sure if they had drama in the last book and I have forgotten, or that was an off the page addition for this book. Still an enjoyable read for me.”
