STORY-LINE NIGHT OF THE LIVING WED BY LAURA DURHAM:
Annabelle and her crew received a gift stay at a luxurious resort. Ready for a relaxing vacation after a summer of weddings, they are ready to relax and rejuvenate. The resort is beautiful with luxury galore, the only drawback: it’s haunted by ghosts who are not so nice. Determined to discover the cause of the moans, groans, gunshots, and many nightly activities, Annabelle takes on another mystery.
With the resort manager and staff worried the resort will close due to deceased reservations, and an online blog exploiting the ghostly activity, Annabelle thinks someone’s trying to close the resort. Come along with Annabelle and the gang as they investigate the ghostly happenings. My mystery book review of Night Of The Living Wed follows.
CHARACTERS, PLOTTING, DEVELOPMENT:
Laura Durham filled Night Of The Living Wed with ghosts, mystery, suspense, snarky banter, humor, and fun galore. With a cast of wonderfully funny characters, I laughed out loud as they investigated the activity. It’s hard for me to pick my favorite character; Annabelle’s team’s filled with people who are from all walks of life. Including the dog was an excellent stroke, what a pampered cutie. Every good mystery must have an antagonist; Durham gave us two in this funny tale of mystery and ghosts. The web blogger who’s exploiting the ghostly visitations on the internet and Brianna, rival wedding planner; you will love to hate Brianna. How did she and the blogger happen to be at the same resort as Annabelle?
Including two large leather and chain garbed male florist, who are Christians, was a stroke of genius. I laughed until tears ran as I pictured them in pajamas covered in wedding rings. Along with the feminine Fern who’s more feminine than most women, the droll Richard, and the ready for anything Kate, this crew’s hilarious. I love a well-written mystery which includes humor; this book fits the bill. Who is the person instigating the ghostly happenings; is it an employee, the owner, the blogger, the wedding planning rival, or someone else? Then again, it may all be real! The only way to find out is to read Night Of The Living Wed.
MY OPINION:

The pace is just fast enough to keep the reader wondering what is going on at the resort.

I could see the resort, ghosts, and activity in my mind’s eye. In Night Of The Living Wed, I found Durham‘s writing clear and easy to follow. I would not hesitate to buy this book for myself or a friend.
