Sandi Webster, private investigator, is in for the adventure of a lifetime when she and her partner, Pete, become stranded in a ghost town inhabited by a mysterious horse-riding cowboy and haunted by some unsolved Old West murders. What better way to spend a well-earned vacation than running down old clues and searching vintage houses that haven't been entered in over a hundred and twenty years? Bubba, Sandi's half wolf/half Golden retriever, and the mysterious cowboy keep the action moving.

4,0 su 5 stelle Two intriguing mysteries for the price of one
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 8 gennaio 2019

In OLD MURDERS NEVER DIE Marja McGraw gives us two engrossing mysteries for the price of one. Private investigators Sandi Webster and her fiancé Pete - plus dog Bubba - are camping in the Arizona Mountains. Suddenly they’re trapped in the ghost town of Wolf Creek by a menacing cowboy rider. They discover Wolf Creek itself is sitting on dark secrets dating back 130 years. To escape their present-day dilemma, our PI heroes have to solve a past one, and discover the identity of the serial killer who terrorised this community back in the 1880s. But how do you solve a crime when all your witnesses have been dead for a century or more? This is a warm, easy read, written in an agreeable conversational style, with the brooding ghost town adding plenty of atmosphere. And the premise is such fun I’d like to see it repeated – maybe Sandi and Pete can have a crack at solving the riddle of Jack the Ripper?

A writing guru just came out with a book that tells us you can’t mix genres. In fact, he claims that you have to meet readers’ expectations on the very first page. It’s as though they go on Amazon, look at the cover, click on “Look Inside,” peruse the opening for, say, a creepy thriller or a harmless cozy and if the expectation isn’t met, it’s over. On to what’s next on the list.
However, as Marja McGraw’s Old Murders Never Die strongly suggests, “It ain’t necessarily so.”
The cold, gripping opening written in the third person follows a young pregnant women frantically running from the clutches of a killer. In no time she is dispatched and we are in the throes of a nightmarish tale.
However, the next thing you know, P.I. Sandi Webster, her fiancé and sidekick Pete Goldberg plus their dog Bubba are off on a camping trip in the mountains of Arizona. Lighthearted Sandi is telling the tale, glad to get away from all those bodies that keep cropping up back in L.A. but a bit disconcerted when they lose their way. Not only that, but they come across an old mining ghost town from back in the 1880s replete with an abandoned house. Moreover, as luck would have it, they become stranded when someone swipes the ignition relay module from their Jeep.
It’s at this point that the jarring opening sequence continues to hover over everything that ensues. It makes no difference that Sandi and Pete try to make the best of things, that Pete was formerly with the L.A.P.D. and carries his trusty handgun, and Bubba is a “bear-sized” watchdog. It makes no difference that Sandi keeps coming up with quips like, “I was feeling my pioneer woman oats at the moment. Women can feel their oats too.” We are solidly in some kind of twilight zone. A cowboy on a black stallion keeps appearing. He shoots his six guns in the air. Sandi asks if he’s a ghost. Bubba chases after him; Pete shoos him off telling him to “vamoose” as if he’d wandered in from an old Western.
After all, what ghostly cowboy from the 1880s knows how to pin someone down by making off with an ignition relay module? And also knows that a cell phone will do the intrepid duo no good in an outback with no satellite reception?
However, like all good cozy characters, Sandi discovers an old diary written by the sheriff way back then and the game’s afoot. A 15-year-old girl was found with her throat cut which was only the first murder. Sandi then finds a straight razor in the old barber shop that might be the murder weapon. Old medical records reveal the specter of more mayhem. In due course, the pressing question arises: Why did everyone suddenly leave town?
Can Sandi and Pete keep treating this as an intriguing page of history? Will yesteryear, the cowboy and the here-and-now eventually collide? Will the couple and their dog ever get back to L.A. and those cozy, everyday murders?
Read on.

Private investigators, Sandi Webster and her partner and fiancé Pete Goldberg, along with Sandi's half wolf/half Golden Retriever, Bubba, are on the road for a much needed vacation, when a wrong turn lands them in a ghost town, that they were to later discover, is full of secrets.

Finding themselves lost at the end of a mountain road, Sandi spots an interesting-looking, abandoned, old house and talks Pete into stopping by to have a look around. She finds some journals belonging to the town's sheriff, and being the sleuth that she is, feels compelled to read them, if only to find out what life was like in the 1800's. The impatient Pete wants to be on the road again, and after a short time, they decide to leave, that is, until a mysterious cowboy on horseback steals an ignition part from their Jeep Liberty...and suddenly they're stranded.

Sandi feels that since they're stranded anyway, searching the old, vintage houses in town would be a great way to spend their time, and so our two investigators proceed with caution, only to find that when the town's residents left, they also left most of their possessions behind. To find out why, Sandi reads more of the sheriff's journals and discovers that several unsolved murders had taken place here. Now her sleuth's curiosity is peaked.

With reading the sheriff's insights about the murders, and searching the homes of the former townsfolk for clues, Sandi takes you along with her on a journey to know, understand, and yes, even care about, the people who had once lived in the small, mining town of Wolf Creek, and to eventually uncover the murderer. The mystery surrounding the ubiquitous cowboy is an added feature to this wonderful story.

Marja describes her characters and the area with such perceptiveness, that you are clearly able to visualize the town and its inhabitants. I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It's extremely entertaining, a definite page-turner, and a must read.
