In Book Three of the Diana Spaulding Quartet, scandal-sheet journalist Diana Spaulding and her fiancé, Ben Northcote, make a detour in their trip back to Maine from Colorado to visit a hotel in rural Sullivan County, New York that is owned by Diana's uncles. Until very recently, she didn't know she had any family living, and they have no idea that she exists. Before she can properly introduce herself, the discovery of the bones of a murdered girl place Diana in an awkward situation. Her editor wants her to go after the story. Diana wants to prove her newfound relatives innocent of any crime.
And Ben just wants to prevent his beloved from stumbling over any more dead bodies.
Reviews:
"Kathy Emerson provides just enough detail of life in 1888 to set the sense of place. Her character-driven mystery thrives on the relationships she develops between her characters and especially Diana's feisty insistence that she is a modern woman who can handle herself in any situation. RECOMMENDED." I Love A Mystery
"The only problem with NO MORTAL REASON, Kathy Lynn Emerson's third installment in her Diana Spaulding mystery series, is that it's not set in Maine . . . A joy to read." Bangor (Maine) Daily News
"NO MORTAL REASON is a clearly written historical thriller that informs and entertains the reader. Diana Spaulding is a formidable heroine, with a stubborn streak that adds spice to this page turner. An excellent addition to Ms. Emerson's considerable catalog of books." Shelley Glodowsky, Midwest Book Review
