You're invited to the hottest bash in Sinful, Louisiana. It's Gertie's Tenth Annual Funeral (because why have a funeral after she's gone and can't hear all the good things people say about her?) and she's pulling out all the stops, hoping to make this year's celebration the best one yet.
Only someone has a different idea. Someone wants to take the f-u-n out of "funeral" and tries to turn fake-dead Gertie into real-dead Gertie.
Who would want to kill Gertie? And why? And can Fortune and the Geritol Mafia stop him before he attempts to kill Gertie again?
Nearly Departed is the first in the Sinful Stories series, a fast-paced novella set in the world of Jana DeLeon's Miss Fortune Mysteries, complete with a splash of suspense, a dollop of humor and a pinch of heart.
