<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Just in time for Bouchercon 2018 and Halloween 2018, Diversion returns to Leigh Perry's wonderful Family Skeleton Series of delightful cozy mysteries with a new story!<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Georgia Thackery is feeling pretty good about her summer job teaching at prestigious Overfeld College, and she's renting a rustic cabin right by a lake for herself, her daughter, Madison, and her best friend, Sid the Skeleton. Together again, the trio are enjoying the quiet when a teenager named Jen shows up looking for her friend. Georgia doesn't recognize the name, but she learns that the person Jen was looking for is actually Sid. <p/> Sid reveals that he and Jen are part of a regular online gaming group that formed locally, and one of their members has gone missing. Sid admits that he might have bragged about his investigative prowess, enough so that Jen wants him to find their missing player. Given that Sid doesn't have many friends offline--none, really, unless you count the Thackery family--Georgia agrees to help him search. They manage to discreetly enlist Jen, who lives in town, and follow the clues to... a dead buddy. <p/> Now they've got a killer on their hands. Probing the life of Sid's friend, they realize a lot is wrong both on campus and in the seemingly quaint town, and someone doesn't want them looking deeper.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Dr. Georgia Thackery is smart, resourceful, and determined to be a great single mom to her teenager. Georgia is normal in every respect--except that her best friend happens to be a skeleton named Sid. You'll love the adventures of this unexpected mystery-solving duo. --Charlaine Harris, #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author <p/> "Adjunct English professor Georgia Thackery makes a charming debut in <i>A Skeleton in the Family</i>. Georgia is fiercely loyal to her best friend, Sid, an actual skeleton who is somehow still 'alive.' When Sid sees someone he remembers from his past life--who later turns up dead--Georgia finds herself trying to put together the pieces of Sid's past as she works to hunt down a killer. Amateur sleuth Georgia, and her sidekick, Sid, are just plain fun!" --Sofie Kelly, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Faux Paw</i> <p/> "No bones about it, Leigh Perry hooked me right from the beginning. An unusual premise, quirky characters and smart, dry humor season this well-told mystery that kept me guessing until the very end. It's too bad Perry's sleuth is fictional--I'd invite Georgia over for dinner in a heartbeat." --Bailey Cates, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Magic and Macaroons</i> <p/> A delightful cozy with a skeleton who will tickle your funny bone. --Paige Shelton, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>If Onions Could Spring Leeks</i><br><br>Whodunits don't come much funnier than Perry's suspenseful fifth mystery featuring 'an ambulatory skeleton named Sid.'... Fans of offbeat comic mysteries will be richly rewarded. --<i>Publishers Weekly, </i> starred review<br>
