The Undead Mr. Tenpenny
The Cassie Black Trilogy Book 1
by Tammie Painter
Genre: Humorous Dark Fantasy Mystery
Work at a funeral home can be mundane. Until you accidentally start bringing the dead back to life.
“…a clever, hilarious romp through a new magical universe” –Sarah Angleton, author of Gentleman of Misfortune
Cassie Black works at a funeral home. She’s used to all manner of dead bodies. What she’s not used to is them waking up. Which they seem to be doing on a disturbingly regular basis lately.
Just when Cassie thinks she has the problem under control, the recently deceased Busby Tenpenny insists he’s been murdered and claims Cassie might be responsible thanks to a wicked brand of magic she’s been exposed to. The only way for Cassie to get her life back to normal is to tame her magic and uncover Mr. Tenpenny’s true killer.
Simple right?
Of course not. Because while Cassie works on getting her newly acquired magic sorted, she’s blowing up kitchens, angering an entire magical community, and discovering her past is more closely tied to Busby Tenpenny than she could have ever imagined.
If you like comic fantasy whodunits with plenty of wry humor, a cast of unforgettable characters, a touch of paranormal mystery, and piles of pastries, you’ll find it hard to pry yourself away from this first book of the Cassie Black Trilogy.
Note: While this book delivers a contemporary fantasy tale with snarky giggles and a few hexes, it’s fairly clean with only an itty-bitty bit of light cursing, one fight scene, and no hanky panky or sexual situations.
The Cassie Black “Trilogy” has now grown to a very un-trilogy-like six books that include…
- The Undead Mr. Tenpenny (#1 of The Cassie Black Trilogy 1.0)
- The Uncanny Raven Winston (#2 of The Cassie Black Trilogy 1.0)
- The Untangled Cassie Black (#3 of The Cassie Black Trilogy 1.0)
- The Unusual Mayor Marheart (#1 of The Cassie Black Trilogy 2.0)
- The Unbearable Inspector Oberlin (#2 of The Cassie Black Trilogy 2.0)
- The Unexpected Mr Hopkins (#3 of The Cassie Black Trilogy 2.0)
What readers have to say about the series so far…
“Wow and wow again! I absolutely loved this book! You get such a feel for the characters and the story is so fast paced you don’t want to put it down.”
“More, please!”
“I was unable to put this down when I started reading it. The author combines humour with a fast paced murder mystery all packed into a funeral home.”
“…suffused with dark humor and witty dialogue…”
“Cassie Black, won me over in the first book of this series, and she doesn’t disappoint in this one!!!”
The Uncanny Raven Winston
The Cassie Black Trilogy Book 2
There’s nothing like an evil wizard to ruin a perfectly good trip to London.
Ever have one of those weeks? You’ve taken an overdose of magic, you’ve melted a twelve-year old girl, and Magic HQ has sent a letter “requesting” you come by to discuss your magic control issues.
No? Just me, then?
I don’t want to go. I’ve got a boss in a wheelchair (my fault), a zombie cat who demands his treats on schedule, and no interest in sorting out the quirks of another magical community.
But when someone slips me information tying my parents’ disappearance to HQ, I can’t pack my bags quickly enough.
I’m soon destroying historical displays, befriending befuddled ghosts, and focusing more on uncovering the truth about my past than on learning how to rein in my magic. Which, considering what might happen if I fail the test HQ has for me… Well, best not to think about that.
This second book of the Cassie Black Trilogy squeezes you through a magic portal, lodges you in a hidden corner of the Tower of London, and plunges you into a tale of mysterious mishaps, peculiar ravens, and TV-binging trolls.
If you like contemporary fantasy with unforgettable characters, snarky humor, and a touch of paranormal mystery — or if you’ve ever wondered what those garden gnomes are really up to — you’ll find it hard to pry yourself away from The Uncanny Raven Winston.
The Cassie Black Trilogy is a fish-out-of-water tale that takes you from the streets of Portland to the Tower of London. It’s got magic and mystery, pastries and zombies, sentient gnomes and an evil wizard…because there’s always an evil wizard, isn’t there?
The Untangled Cassie Black
The Cassie Black Trilogy Book 3
Sometimes taking an overdose of magic is the least of your problems.
Not only has Cassie Black just lost two people through a magic portal, but her archenemy, the Mauvais, is threatening to destroy city after city if Magic HeadQuarters doesn’t hand her over to him…. a proposal HQ isn’t exactly saying no to.
As the Magic higher ups debate her fate, Cassie refuses to sit by and watch the grass grow between the toes of the surveillance gnomes. Biting back her life rule to never get involved, she knows the only way to stop the Mauvais is to go after him herself.
Which is exactly what he wants. Because the instant Cassie falls into his hands, the Mauvais will gain the unlimited power he’s always craved.
So don’t get captured, right? Easy for you to say.
Trouble is, there’s a traitor within HQ who’s proving to be more devious, more powerful, and with more tricks up the sleeve than anyone could have ever guessed.
In this page-turning conclusion of the Cassie Black Trilogy, the curses are flying, the pastries are plentiful, the bookworms are slithering, and the magical batteries are charged to capacity.
If you like contemporary fantasy filled with dark humor, paranormal mystery, and a cast of unforgettably quirky characters, you’ll love the twists and turns of this conclusion to the first Cassie Black Trilogy.
