Scared Stiff by Annelise Ryan
A Mattie Winston Mystery (2nd in series)
Kensington
There are two Kindle editions available (not sure why): one from September 2010 (which is currently the free one, and the one to which we've linked) and one from August 2011 (which is not free).
About Scared Stiff (from the publisher): Halloween night in Sorenson, Wisconsin, usually resembles any other small town: trick-or-treaters, costume parties, and lots of cheerfully scary decorations. But Deputy Coroner Mattie Winston is finding this year a little different, because among all the fake carnage is a very real, very dead body …
When Mattie and her boss/best friend, Izzy, are called to the home of waitress and part-time model Shannon Tolliver, they find the ghoulish decorations just a bit too authentic. For among the fake blood and skeletons is the corpse of Shannon herself — and the evidence screams murder.
Since the whole town knows Shannon recently had a very public argument with her estranged husband, Erik, he's suspect #1 for homicide detective Steve Hurley. Tall, dark, and blissfully blue-eyed detective Steve Hurley, that is … But Mattie happens to know Erik truly loved his wife, and is simply incapable of the brutal act — even though he owns the exact same caliber handgun as the murder weapon …
Determined to unearth the truth — and maybe spend a little quality time with Detective Hunky — Mattie puts her scalpel-sharp medical skills to work, and digs a little deeper. What she uncovers is stranger than anyone could have imagined …
It seems Shannon's murder is just the tip of a very fatal iceberg. Now, in order to solve a case that's getting more dangerous by the minute — and to save Erik from the slammer — Mattie will have to risk everything to catch a killer who's capable of doing anything once he's cornered. And this time, it's not just Mattie's life that's on the line.
