great paranormal police procedural
In life, Kevin Fahey was a lousy father, a miserable husband, and a bottom feeder detective; who was drunk more often than he was sober. In death, he remains stuck on the mortal plane seeking redemption. He believes he needs to make reparations because of all those he harmed when he was alive. He follows the activities of his replacement highly regarded Detective Maggie Gunn.
Currently Maggie is bogged down with two complicated cases that each needs her full attention. A female corpse is found in her home; dead by a gunshot made to look like a suicide, but Maggie realizes a murder occurred. Across the street is a park and while all attention is inside the victim's home, someone abducts a child there. Fahey knows where the kidnapped child is being held and that the lad is safe for the moment. He needs to find a way to inform Maggie, but has limited ability to communicate with her. If he succeeds he knows that she will conclude that the homicide and the kidnapping are linked.
This is a great paranormal police procedural that focuses on two violent crimes, a dedicated but lonely cop working both and a ghost who fights evil anyway he can as he has a personal objective. Heart wrenching yet also heartwarming, Angel Interrupted is fast-paced with terrific twists the reader never expects yet afterward will feel Chaz McGee is on target as the paranormal adds the nice extra touch to an entertaining whodunit.

Truly, an Angel Interrupted!I read this when it first came out,
Truly, an Angel Interrupted!I read this when it first came out, and It's a testament to how much I enjoyed the novel that I keep checking to see if the next one is available. I would like to see how Kevin manages to help Maggie, the live detective, solve the next murder and if his actions will allow him to move on or if he becomes accustomed to a role as guardian angel. Chaz's McGee, write! Write faster! Don't abandon this promising series, or if you're writing under another name, give us a hint!

Wow great book. Characters are easy to relate to. It gets you goingin many directions with a not too predictable end. Hope he writes a third one soon

Great Read
This is the second in the Dead Detective Series . I read the first, Desolate Angel, and found it very different and interesting to read. It's about a detective who was lazy and a bad husband and father and cop. He is dead now, but still earthbound. He tries to help his replacement, Maggie solve the case of a nurse's murder and the abduction of a child from the park across the street from the crime scene. He is very limited in what he can do, but he always figures out a way to help.
Chaz McGee is a pen-name for Katy Munger and also Gallagher Gray. I haven't read any books under those names, but the Dead Detective series is a winner, and I will likely try some of the others.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

A who-done-it with some meaning
Love this series that looks at the quotidien of life from beyond life as the dead detective comes to realize the life he has squandered and tries to find some sort of redemption in doing good from the far side of the grave. Can't wait for the next one!
