Few people have ever experienced a connection like the one Cici Gurule and her sister had. The women weren't just twins; they were identical.
Yes,ย were.
Now, Cici must learn to live without her sister . . .
...and deal with herย unsolvedย murder and a cold trail.
โPlease note: This is a companion novella that should be read prior to or afterย A Pilgrimage to Deathย as it offers further insights into Cici, Sam, and the murder of Anna Carmen. It ends on a cliffhanger.โ
Although these books are best read in order, as a series, the rest (afterย A Pilgrimage to Death) can be read as a standalone. The chronological order is:
Identical Death
A Pilgrimage to Death
A Heritage of Death
An Artifact of Death
A Revelation of Death
A Counsel of Deathย
