Book Description
No-one's checking in right now, but the pandemic never was the problem at The Cloverluck. It's February 2021 and Texas is in a deep freeze. The ill-preparedness for coping with an extended cold snap is starkly laid bare as millions are without power for hours on end. For some of the millions affected, the results are catastrophic. For most, it's a serious irritation, but the incompetence that led to this will soon be forgotten once power is restored. For the skeleton staff working at the Covid-closed Cloverluck Hotel, the nightmare is just beginning. Built from Irish mob money in the 1920s on the site once occupied by the old electric chair in Austin, Texas, The Cloverluck Hotel seemed live up to its name with its Southern charm and the patronage of some well-rewarded local politicians, but none of these people ever understood that it was a consistently powered electric grid that kept at bay the dark secrets that lay beneath this hotel. Lise Mantell, the new under manager, desperate to have any job after her last humiliation, thinks she's turned a corner, but around that corner is the horror of death and duplicity, and it's all about to come to a shocking conclusion.

This is not your great-grandfather's Christmas Carol! Ben is a successful casting director working out of San Francisco. He has access to a host of aspiring actresses who come to him looking to get into the movies, but just because he can find the right person for the right part doesn't mean he has a decent character.

On Christmas Eve, he's visited by his dead partner, who tells him he's doomed to a miserable after-party if he can't stop irresponsibly partying in this life. Can the ghosts of relationships past and the non-conforming and flamboyant ghosts of things to come wise Ben up to the wisdom of MeToo or will he end up condemned to a cold and lonely TooMe?
