LET'S GET COZY! DEAD END STREET: A PREVIEW AND GIVEAWAY

GIVEAWAY ENDED
DEAD END STREET 
A Museum Mystery
BY SHEILA CONNOLLY

ABOUT THE BOOK:
The New York Times bestselling author of Privy to the Dead returns to Philadelphia for more history—and a chilling mystery . . .

When the Pennsylvania Antiquarian Society discovers it owns some unique real estate, a deadly plot unfolds . . .

Society president Nell Pratt believes life is finally going her way. Everything’s running smoothly at work, and her love life is thriving. Then some unexpected news rocks her foundation. Two members of a local neighborhood rescue program, Tyrone Blakeney and Cherisse Chapman, inform Nell that her society owns an abandoned row house in a rundown area of Philadelphia and they insist on taking her to see the property before its date with the wrecking ball.

But soon after they arrive at the house, Cherisse is fatally shot and Tyrone is badly injured. The police believe it’s just random violence in a bad neighborhood, but Nell thinks there’s more to it and is determined to find answers before someone else becomes history . . .

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Sheila Connolly is the New York Times bestselling author and Agatha Award–nominated writer of the Museum Mysteries, the Orchard Mysteries, and the County Cork Mysteries. She has taught art history, structured and marketed municipal bonds for major cities, worked as a staff member on two statewide political campaigns, and served as a fundraiser for several nonprofit organizations. She also managed her own consulting company, providing genealogical research services. In addition to genealogy, Sheila loves restoring old houses, visiting cemeteries, and traveling. Now a full-time writer, she thinks writing mysteries is a lot more fun than any of her previous occupations. She is married and has one daughter and three cats.

I like that there seems to be a secret reason for the shooting (not just random violence), and it involves a house (which might have a historical background). I am looking forward to solving the mystery.

The opening makes you wonder why one person was fatally shot and another injured. They were going to do is look at a property that was due for the wrecking ball.

There are plenty of these areas left in Philly, I imagine. I haven't been there in many years. Squatters, drug dealers, I wonder who they disrupted by visiting there. I'd love to read the book and find out more.
