About this ebook
An elderly clergyman tells Pat and Phillis of the strange happenings in the middle of the night in the old rectory. "I was at my wit's end," he told them. "I wasn't sure if I was having a nervous breakdown or becoming senile. Then, the noises. I can still hear those dreadful noises in the dead of night."
Intrigued, they rush off to Philadelphia. They're too late. Murder gets there before them.

The first book, THE BODIES OUT BACK, starts this pair off on their new career as detectives when they discover the body of Pat’s next-door neighbor.

Gerry is not above stretching the truth when the end she has in mind requires it.
