A Sculpted Demise A Ghostly Ashlannd Shakespeare Mystery Book Four

Book Four: A Sculpted Demise

In Ashland, even the statues have secrets.

During Ashland’s glittering First Friday Art Walk, celebrated sculptor Hadrian Kessler unveils a breathtaking new collection of Greco-Roman statuary. But retired Israeli antiquities investigator William Mills sees something troubling beneath the polished surfaces. The sculptures are flawless—perhaps too flawless.

Then Kessler is found murdered, his body concealed within one of his own creations.

When evidence points to William, he is arrested for a crime he did not commit, leaving Carol Lindsey to clear his name before the case is carved in stone. With help from Dante, their mischievous ghost cat, and Wolfie, the gentle spirit of a young pianist whose ghostly music carries an urgent warning, Carol follows a trail through jealous artists, secretive collectors, forged antiquities, and a secluded villa whose walls may conceal a stolen fortune.

Someone has transformed Ashland’s charming art scene into a marketplace for the dead—and will kill again to protect its secrets.

Filled with Shakespearean atmosphere, small-town intrigue, delicious food and recipes, ghostly clues, and a slow-burning romance, A Sculpted Demise is the fourth Ghostly Ashland Shakespeare Mystery.

Some masterpieces are worth killing for.
