Book 2 from the The Accidental Medium series.
Gin Palace is the second book by Tracy Whitwell in a hilarious series featuring Tanz, the accidental medium who, with the help of the dead, has become an unwilling crime-solver.
'Spooky and hilarious' - Mandasue Heller on The Accidental Medium
Set in Newcastle, Gin Palace rejoins Tanz, the Accidental Medium and an unwilling crime solver, as she grows accustomed to her rather unusual gift - communicating with the dead . . .
Tanz can talk to ghosts, although she'd prefer it if she couldn't. Struggling to make ends meet as an actress and wholly unsuited to supply teaching, Tanz is only one bad day away from a meltdown. And the babbling ghosts aren't helping.
So when Tanz is offered a paid acting gig in her hometown, things start to look up. But Newcastle's dead won't stay quiet for long, and soon Tanz becomes haunted with visions of a mysterious Gin Palace guarded by a sinister figure. As Tanz starts to piece together a terrible tragedy, it becomes clear there's no limit to what the poltergeist will do to keep his secrets his own.
Unfortunately, he's never met anyone quite like Tanz before . . .
Gin Palace is the second novel in the Accidental Medium series from Tracy Whitwell. It is followed by Cross Bones.
About the Author: Tracy Whitwell was born, brought up and educated in Gateshead in the north-east of England. She wrote plays and short stories from an early age, then had her head turned, and like the ungrateful wretch she's always been, she ran off to London to be an actress. By 1993 she was wearing a wig and an old-fashioned dress and pretending to be impoverished on telly in a Catherine Cookson mini-series, whilst going to see every indie/rock band she could afford.After an interesting twelve years messing about in front of the camera and traveling the world, Tracy discovered she still loved writing and completed her first full length play KABOOM! A son, many stage plays, screenplays and a music video followed, until 2012 when she realized she was finally ready to do the one thing she'd longed to do since she was six. She wrote her first novel, The Accidental Medium - a crime/horror/comedy tale about an alcohol-soaked, gobby, thrill-seeking actress who talks to ghosts. (Who knows where the inspiration came from . . .)Tracy now lives in north London, is working on screenplays and making her own short films, and has written more novels.
