First in a new fantasy mystery series from acclaimed author John Goodrich, Dead Wrongs features a mage who solves mysteries by asking the dead who murdered them. Malandro has a decent gig going for a necromancer. When there are murders, he temporarily brings victims' spirits back to their bodies--so they can point a finger at their killers. This earns him just enough coin to survive in the dog-eat-dog city of Amelath. But when a beautiful widow needs help solving her husband's murder, Malandro discovers a new challenge: the dead man refuses to name who did it. Malandro is reduced to finding clues, investigating leads, and tracking down witnesses--in the process acquiring a new set of enemies, and he already had a healthy share. When a fire mage starts actively trying to kill him, Malandro realizes he's unraveling a magical conspiracy involving the most powerful people in the city. And if he doesn't solve his case in time, he'll find it easier than ever to talk to the dead--because he'll be one of them.
