Have you ever wondered what it would be like if obituaries told the truth? The people of a small town in Montana don’t have to wonder because they have Lizzy Langston, the secret obituary writer for the local newspaper. With information she receives at an anonymous email address, she produces mostly humorous, sometimes poignant, but always truthful obituaries that magically appear between sections A and B of the morning paper.
When several cryptic emails question the official details of a man’s death, Lizzy elicits the help of handsome detective Jackson Clark. Together, they travel halfway around the world to search for answers . . . and maybe even find love along the way.
With mystery, romance, and a hefty helping of humor, The Secret Obituary Writer will keep you entertained until the very last page

I loved this book! So unique and clever with a wonderful romance, mystery, and plenty of humor! And The Secret Obituary Writer is also clean and free of lurid sex scenes or foul language. Amy Martinsen weaves a thoroughly enjoyable tale unlike any other I have read. I was drawn at once into the story and had a hard time putting it down. I love that Lizzy and Detective Jackson Clark travel across the globe looking for answers to the mystery that presents itself. Ms. Martinsen kept me turning pages to the very end. I am eagerly anticipating her next book. May I also add that her first book, Changing Worlds, is also a great page-turner! I remember reading it even while I cooked dinner because I could not put it down.

I completely loved this book! It really has it all. The characters are so lifelike! The romance kept me wanting more. And, the historical ties gave it just the right amount of substance. The young and old alike will love this book!
