Buried Under Clutter (Tina Tales Mysteries Book 2) by Jan Christensen
Someone screams inside the old, neglected Victorian house next door, and Tina Shaw runs to find out what’s wrong. A woman bursts out the door saying her aunt is dead. Murdered. Tina notices that the hallway is piled high with cartons. Later when the woman begs her to help clean up the house, Tina hesitates. She’s just begun a career as a professional organizer, though, and her hands itch to start on a new job.
As Tina sifts through the clutter, she finds clues the murdered woman left behind. She learns the woman was rich, and all her relatives are suspects. But when the will is read, Tina and her family also become suspects. After her mother is arrested, Tina begins investigating in earnest with the help of her boyfriend, Hank (the Hunk). Will she find out who the killer is before her own life is put in danger?
Second in the Tina Tales series.
About the author of the Tina Tales Mysteries, Jan Christensen:
Jan Christensen grew up in New Jersey and now resides in Texas. Her list of published novels and short stories is growing, year by year.
It all started with “Sara’s Search” back in 2004. Still available for Kindle, it’s out of print now. But after that came “Revelations,” first in the Valleyview Series. A few years later, “Blackout” was number two in that series. The Tina Tales series about a professional personal organizer and time management expert in Newport, RI, came along, and the three mystery novels so far in that series are: “Organized to Death,” “Buried Under Clutter,” and “Cluttered Attic Secrets.” And there’s more! The Paula Mitchell, PI, series started with “Perfect Victim,” followed by “A Broken Life,” and most recently, “Secrets Exposed.”
Jan’s had over fifty short stories appear in various places over the last dozen years, two of which were nominated for a Derringer Award. She has a series of short stories called the Artie Crimes about an intrepid burglar who always seems to get entangled in some woman’s dilemma. Three of her previously published short stories are in the “Warning Signs 1” collection, with more to come.
Jan mainly enjoys writing mysteries, but every once in a while steps out of that comfort zone and goes for something else. When not writing and reading, she’s hanging out on most of the social networking sites and doing email. Learn more at her website: www.janchristensen.com
