"...throws ghost-hunting Texas gals and survivalists together in a haunted hotel. For those who believe in ghosts, thrills, chills, and giggles..." ~Kirkus Reviews "In DEAD MAN HAUNT, T. M. Simmons brings together a most unusual group, led by a writer and talented ghosthunter, who is bent on helping a very handsome ghost who likes to run naked through a disintegrating mineral springs hotel searching for his lost love. The sulting action is funny, full of crazy antics, and it's downright endearing for a murder mystery." ~NOVELTALK "This exciting paranormal whodunit uses ghosts as support characters, which surprisingly seems real because of the interplay between the spirits and the brave living sleuths. Alice and Twila take the existence of ghosts in stride as if it is an everyday occurrence, which to them it is, while Alice’s ex Jack denies their existence. As with DEAD MAN TALKING, T.M. Simmons provides a lightfully charming leisurely flowing supernatural cozy." ~Harriet Klausner, Reviewer "I can’t get enough of this author." ~ Martha A.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Fishing Trip Nets a Murderer in Dead Man Ohio, a Murder Mystery from T. M. Simmons —The Middle of Ohio— Our intrepid crew of ghost hunters is at it again, this time in Ohio, where ghosts from the state's past roam the woods, and mythological beasts exist only in lore. Or do they? It's Alice's ex-husband, Jack, who spots a strange creature in Twila's little red car after he arrives in Ohio to spend some time fishing with Twila's husband, Jess, near their beautiful farmhouse deep in the woods of Ohio. Twila bravely tries to handle the situation alone, unaware the entity shadowing her is testing her psychic senses. At Jack's call, Alice and Granny pack what they need to help, along with Trucker and Miss Molly, and hie-tail it from Texas to Yankee land. Twila and Jess's farm, filled with historical burial mounds, and surrounded by Amish farmland, seems too peaceful to be dangerous. Perhaps the serenity lulls the local residents into believing they are safe, unable to see what truly lives among them. It takes the capture of a murderer and the exposure of a hidden society of clever creatures to sort this out.
