Deep Sea Dead - A Pauline Sokol Mystery

Twenty-six authors agreed to write stories based on the Tarot... with the Tarot cards determining which story subject the authors would write.  We took a tarot deck and the list of the twenty-six authors: read the author's name, shuffled the deck, and drew a card.   That tarot card and its traits were all the authors had to go on.   The card was removed, the deck was reshuffled, and the next name was read off.   Never Fear - The Tarot, contains twenty-six stories based on the twenty-two cards of the Major Arcana and the four cards of the Minor Arcana.   Award-winning and New York Times bestselling authors combine their talents to deal out twenty-six dark tales influenced by the Tarot.

Never Fear - The Tarot - Never Fear

This funny and charming second book in our promising new mass market mystery series features Pauline Sokol, a sassy 30-something ex-nurse turned medical insurance fraud investigator. Pauline Sokol has just escaped serious bodily harm during her first investigation, when her second case file is literally thrown into her lap. And this one seems to be a doozie--with one suspect already dead! Pauline's sleuthing leads her to the Senior Citizen's Clinic, where she realizes that her deceased suspect was part of an illegal Viagra ring! Pauline is soon going undercover as a senior hot mama and chasing down leads at the local bingo parlor. Between fending off some wrinkled "over-70" admirers, and helping the sexy investigator Jagger with his own case at the Senior Clinic, Pauline is again faced with a murderer on the loose! Adding to her panic is the reality that her attraction to Jagger is intensifying, despite the fact that the handsome and reliable Nick is courting her. With the help of her hilarious family and friends, Pauline must juggle an undercover nursing gig, two sexy leading men, a senior alter-ego, and a gaggle of geriatric suspects--all before she becomes the next victim!
