<p>Jane Delaney does things her paying customers can&rsquo;t do, don&rsquo;t want to do, don&rsquo;t want to be seen doing, can&rsquo;t bring themselves to do, and/or don&rsquo;t want it to be known they&rsquo;d paid someone to do. To dead people.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Life gets complicated for Jane and her Death Diva business when she&rsquo;s hired to liberate a gaudy mermaid brooch from the corpse during a wake&mdash;on behalf of the rightful owner, supposedly. Well, a girl&rsquo;s got to make a living, and this assignment pays better than scattering ashes, placing flowers on graves, or bawling her eyes out as a hired mourner. Unfortunately for Jane, someone else is just as eager to get his hands on that brooch, and he&rsquo;s even sneakier than she is, not to mention dangerously sexy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Just when she thinks her biggest problem is grand theft mermaid, things take a murderous turn. But hey, when you&rsquo;ve teamed up with a neurotic seven-pound poodle named Sexy Beast, how can you go wrong?</p>
