Lucky Wings

Lucky Wings, an ace reporter stuck on the obituary beat, notices a suspicious pattern: far more funerals than deaths in Central City. Determined to land the real story her editor won't let her cover, she goes undercover at the Charon Funeral Home—and ends up entombed in a state of suspended animation to expose a criminal scheme. Now, with only her quick thinking and a hidden dictaphone to guide her allies, Lucky must survive the night to prove she's got the biggest scoop of her career.
