Dreamwalker Mystery Series

Book 1

While planting a cherry tree, landscaper Baxley Powell discovers a human skull buried in the sand. After calling the sheriff, Baxley uses her dreamwalking abilities to get a jump-start on identifying the victim. Then deputies arrive, and, believing she's tampering with evidence, taser her. Emotions flare, but the sheriff agrees to hire her as a consultant. With a daughter to support and bills she can't pay, Baxley is motivated to succeed. Things get dicey when she unearths a murder victim on the same jobsite, planting Baxley in the suspect pool. For calling unwanted attention to her private retreat, Baxley's landscaping client fires her, stiffing her for the plants and labor. Meanwhile, her father retires as county dreamwalker, passing the community service responsibility along to her. Baxley's dreamwalking sideline competes for her time with her day jobs of landscaping and pet-sitting. Folks show up on her doorstep at all hours to pass messages to the departed. Though her money problems persist, food randomly appears at her door, and her hair develops a telltale white streak in the forelock overnight. Just what every young woman wants, a permanent bad hair day. Threats to her safety mount as Baxley delves into the victim's life--in both worlds. With a killer dogging her heels and spirits nipping at her mind, Baxley follows her dreams to find the truth.

Bubba Done It

by Maggie Toussaint

Published 1 June 2015

"Baxley Powell's pet-sitting and landscaping businesses take a back seat to her success as a police consultant, where her dreamwalking talent for talking to the dead helps solve murders. Baxley is riding with the sheriff when the 911 call comes in - a stabbing in a swanky neighborhood. She's stunned to see a knife in the victim's chest at the crime scene. With his last breath, the bank president whispers, "Bubba done it." Unfortunately, Sinclair County, Georgia, is chock full of Bubbas, four of them with close ties to the victim. When the dead banker is forbidden to talk to Baxley in her dreamwalks, she is forced to sleuth among the living. The top suspects are a down-on-his-luck fisherman, a crackhead evangelist, a politically-connected investor, and, worst of all, her brother-in-law, the high school sweetheart of the dead man's ex-wife. The more Baxley digs, the more ties the suspects have to the victim. Even her brother-in-law raises her suspicions when he's keeping company with the victim's ex. If Baxley can't pin the murder on the real killer, her brother-in-law could go to prison"--Publisher.
