Synopsis

Corey Curtis is coasting. At thirty-three, she's in the best shape of her life and has a satisfying position at Jackson City Memorial Hospital. With a good paycheck, great friends, and occasional relationships with smart, beautiful women, she couldn't be happier. She thinks.

Dr. Thayer Reynolds, whiling away some time before the start of her Emergency Department fellowship at JCMH and intrigued by the stories she's heard, crashes the morgue to get a look at Corey—the woman her young colleagues are whispering about.

Totally spinning from her first interactions with Thayer, Corey throws herself into the post mortem exam of a construction worker who fell to his death, which isn't at all suspicious—until it is. With no support from her boss or the police, Corey investigates the death on her own. Making bad decisions with good intentions, she recklessly endangers her own life and Thayer's. Even worse—she potentially dooms any chance of a real relationship with Thayer before it even gets started.

About Carolyn Elizabeth

Carolyn Elizabeth is a long-time reader of all genres of lesbian fiction and has, for years, imagined counting herself among the writers whose books have been entertaining and inspiring her for nearly two decades. The writing of her own stories has proven to be a thrilling, unpredictable and, at times, poorly thought-out personal journey-much like her twenties-and one she wouldn't change for the world. Carolyn Elizabeth lives and works in London, Ontario, with her amazing wife, their two sweet sons, and two ridiculous dogs.

Dr. Thayer Reynolds, the new ED fellow, tags along with a batch of residents when they head down to the morgue. Not to observe the post mortem exam but to get a firsthand eyeful of the pathologist’s assistant, Corey Curtis, also known in the hospital as the Valkyrie. It’s almost a cartoonish first m......more

Edit June 24th after listening to the audiobook I loved this book when I read it last December, and when I found out Lori Prince was narrating it, it felt like Christmas again. I knew she’d be perfect for Corey Curtis’s voice. I wasn’t sure about Thayer Reynolds’ voice at first, but Prince quickly co......more

Dead bodies and mysteries. This is the first book of the Curtis and Reynolds series. I'm not sure what took me so long to get to this series, but damn, I really love this. The premise intrigued me. Corey works at a morgue as a pathology assistant. She participates in post-mortems and there's a series......more
