Daisy Gumm Majesty series by Alice Duncan (Books 1-6)
Requirements: ePUB or MOBI Reader, Size: 3mb
Overview: I’m Alice Duncan, Emma Craig, Rachel Wilson, Anne Robins, and even Jon Sharpe a couple of times. Alice, Emma, Rachel and Anne all write historical novels, both romances and mysteries. Jon wrote westerns. Two of them. When I was young and didn’t know any better, I wanted to write the Great American Novel. After life kicked me around for a few decades, I decided I not only don’t want to write the Great American Novel, I don’t even want to read it. What I like in my reading material is to be taken away from life’s travails for a few hours. That’s what I aim to do in my own novels, and I consider it a most worthwhile goal.
Genre: Mystery
Strong Spirits #1
Welcome to sunny Pasadena, California, just a stone’s throw from Hollywood. The twenties are in full roar, Prohobition isn’t stopping anybody… And Daisy Gumm Majesty is getting by the best way she knows how–catering to the rich and famous as a medium who put the "con" in conjuror…
Holding seances and interpreting tarot cards, she has built up quite a reputation. One client, in particular, has a great need for her services. Mrs. Kincaid relies on Daisy’s advice on a regular basis. When the wealthy Kincaids become involved in bank fraud, Daisy is asked to keep her eyes and ears open by Detective Sam Rotondo.
Fine Spirits #2
Daisy Gumm Majesty is a spiritualist and con artist. When she comes across the phantom "haunting" Mrs Bissel’s basement she thinks it may be the missing heiress Marianna Wagner, desperately fleeing her unhappy home, so what should she do?
High Spirits #3
Daisy Gumm Majesty, spiritualist to folks with more money than sense, can scarcely believe that her best client wants her to get her spiritual control, Rolly, to appear at a séance in a speakeasy. Bad enough that Daisy made up Rolly when she was ten, but now Rolly has to perform at a seance for a bunch of murdering gangsters?
When the place is raided, Daisy’s troubles multiply.
Add to the mix Daisy’s nemesis (and her husband’s best friend) Detective Sam Rotondo; Vicenzo Maggiori, leader of the bootlegging racket in the area; and Flossie Mosser, befuddled floozy; and you have a rollicking adventure that Daisy isn’t sure she’s going to survive.
Hungry Spirits #4
When Daisy Gumm Majesty, spiritualist to people with more money than sense, is asked by her good friend Johnny Buckingham, a captain in the Salvation Army, to teach a cooking class for disadvantaged ladies, she’s sure Johnny is nuts. She earns her living raising the dead, for goodness sake! The only thing she’s ever been able to do in the kitchen is burn things. Nevertheless, she gallantly sets out to teach the class, using a cooking booklet provided by Johnny, fully expecting calamity to ensue. When it does, the only surprise is that it’s not cooking-related. Rather, one of her students vanishes before the class is over.
In getting to the bottom of the mysterious disappearance, Daisy is not only forced to confront her own prejudices about Germans, whom she blames for her husband’s ill health, but she also lands smack in the middle of a criminal plot! In short, Daisy’s in for the adventure of her life.
Genteel Spirits #5
Daisy Gumm Majesty is back, and she’s up to her ears again. Not only does she have to deal with her husband Billy’s declining health and her dog Spike’s obedience training, but she’s been hired by Lola de la Monica, a fabulously spoiled silent-screen beauty, to be her spiritual advisor on the set of her next picture. As if this wasn’t already enough, a friend asks her to find out who’s been sending him poison-pen letters. Her problems only multiply when Sam Rotondo, Billy’s best friend and Daisy’s worst nightmare, is stationed on the same picture set as she!
Ancient Spirits #6
Ancient Spirits not only takes the reader on an adventure with Daisy‚ Harold and Sam‚ but warms the heart and soul.
