A murdered woman seeks her killer. And being dead won’t stop her. Much.

Dead Mona by D. J. Runnels hit the Amazon top 150 in humor.

Ghost mystery satire suspense. #booksky 📚💙 📚⚡️ #suspense

Photo of the book cover Dead Mona by D. J. Runnels. A dark blue cover with trees at the bottom, conveying life on earth and a bright celestial light at the top, conveying the afterlife or the light at the end of the tunnel. The photo is set against the Chicago city skyline.

In smaller words on the cover:
Confessions of a cranky murder victim.
