Jennifer and Sam are going on their honeymoon! Sounds wonderful, except that Jennifer has no idea where Sam is taking her. It's the middle of winter, so it has to be someplace warm with plenty of sand and sun, right? Imagine her surprise when she finds herself in the middle of a snowstorm in Pennsylvania in what's advertised as a "haunted" mansion for a murder mystery weekend. She's intrigued, especially by the amazing special effects created by the inn's owner, Rex Ferris. But things seldom go smoothly for Jennifer, and when a fellow diner face plants into her coconut cream pie and dies from a seizure, Jennifer suspects murder. After all, the victim is on a girls' weekend with her frenemies from college. Who could possibly want her dead, except every one of them? And who else might be on Jennifer's suspect list? The only thing certain is the killer is still nearby, trapped by three-feet of snow and dangerous travel conditions. Fans will be happy to see Mrs. Walker crash Jennifer's honeymoon to take over the murder investigation, so Jen and Sam can get back to their romantic activities. Fun and romance vie with an intriguing mystery that will keep the reader guessing to the very end. Dying at Honeymoon Inn is the eighth in the delightful Jennifer Marsh Mystery Series.

Jennifer Marsh is a mystery writer with a stack of eight unpublished manuscripts and rejection letters to match filling her closet. She's sure that if she can just get famous for something, someone will have to publish her books. Why not murder? She'll find a target so mean that she'd actually be doing the world a favor by bumping him or her off. And she knows just the person: Penney Richmond, a high-powered literary agent who's made it her job to ruin people's lives. All Jennifer has to do is frame herself, do the deed, and come out with an iron-clad alibi, and she'll be well on her way to getting a three book deal. So what if she chickens out at the last minute? A vegetarian good girl who rescued a greyhound could never actually kill someone. But when Penney is found murdered and the police think Jennifer did it, she’d better find the real murderer before she goes away... for life. Along with her eccentric writer's group, spunky old ladies with a nose for sleuthing, her neurotic greyhound, and a sexy, sarcastic reporter named Sam, Jennifer embarks on a journey filled with danger, deception, and disguises that could leave her Dying to Get Published... “In a roller coaster of hilarity, Fitzwater has crafted three-dimensional characters with warmth, realism, and wickedness.” -- The Snooper "A sprightly novel, Dying to Get Published will entertain all writers...[It] offers a word to the wise: Never thwart a mystery writer, published or unpublished." -- Carolyn G.

She never found love in life…Is it possible she’ll find love after death? Something unexpected happens to Cindy Thomas during a mystery weekend at the Ferris Mansion. One second she’s enjoying a performance with astonishing special effects. The next, she’s dead, surrounded by a troupe of long dead actors who aren’t special effects at all. Harvey, her dream guy, is no longer a dream. He’s real—a real ghost. Suddenly, this new existence is complicated and scary and amazing, leaving her wondering if she’s made the worst mistake of her life, her death, or whatever you want to call it. Cindy will have to decide…should she step through the gateway to Heaven, or is Heaven actually here on earth, in this handsome ghost’s arms? Author’s Note: When I wrote DYING AT HONEYMOON INN, I became fond of Cindy Thomas, the young woman I killed off before readers had a chance to get to know her. For those of you familiar with my other books, you know that in VACATIONING WITH THE DEAD, I populated the Ferris Mansion with a troupe of actors who just happen to be ghosts. I enjoyed writing that book so much, I wanted to revisit the characters. What better way than to have Cindy’s spirit encounter them upon her death? Adding her to the group presented a number of problems, but I really enjoyed writing Cindy and Harvey’s love story. Who’s to say love ends with death, or even the possibility of new love? That’s part of the joy of creation. In my world, it doesn’t have to.

The Jennifer Marsh Mysteries, Books 4 – 6, in one volume! DYING TO REMEMBER, DYING TO BE MURDERED, and DYING TO GET HER MAN continue Jennifer Marsh's adventures as an amateur detective and mystery writer striving fervently to get published. In DYING TO REMEMBER, Jennifer is dragged to her high school reunion by her good friend Leigh Ann. But high school holds nothing but bad memories for Jennifer. Twelve years ago on prom night, classmate Jimmy Mitchell vanished, and her high school beau, Danny Buckner, humiliated her by disappearing in the middle of their date. Now he's begging for her help, only he won't live long enough to tell her why he needs it. Old mysteries surface and new dangers arise as Jennifer tries to solve two murders, one from the past and one from the present. In DYING TO BE MURDERED, Jennifer has been hired to record the last days of rich society matron Mary Ashton's life. Mary's convinced someone is going to murder her, and that there’s nothing she can do to stop it. She makes Jennifer promise that she won't let her murderer get away with it. Jennifer doesn't believe her until Mary winds up dead. Family secrets and grudges, mysterious deaths, and ghostly lights that move about the Ashton Mansion lead to a mystery fraught with danger and intrigue. In DYING TO GET HER MAN, Suzanne Gray dresses herself in white, ties a blue ribbon in her hair, gathers a bouquet of white roses, types a suicide note, lies down on her lover’s grave on the coldest day in Macon, Georgia’s recent history, and freezes to death. Or does she? Is it suicide? Is it murder? Jennifer is determined to find out even as Sam seems determined to ask Jennifer to marry him—at least until his old college flame shows up. Jennifer’s writers’ group is back in each volume to offer their questionable help as they continue their journey toward getting published. Jennifer’s reporter boyfriend Sam is there, as well, to lend his assistance. And Jennifer's faithful greyhound, Muffy, offers plenty of love and support.
