5/5 ⭐ | The Cornbread Letters by T.E. Lane
Featured Jill Rey
What kind of legacy do we want to leave behind after we are gone?  Maybe its our cornbread recipe, maybe it’s the key to finding our buried treasure, maybe it is that of a 9/11 hero.  Author T.E. Lane’s book “The Cornbread Letters” gets readers thinking about the concept of legacy, death, and the finality of all that is lost. Read the full review.


About the story

Sam Abernethy plays by the rules, but his sister Alex does not. When Sam, a by-the-book insurance investigator, begins channeling letters from dead people after his wild-at-heart sister's untimely death, Sam's eerie new ability may be the only thing that saves his loved ones from a deadly serial arsonist.

As Sam and his deaf niece Hannah struggle to recover from Alex’s sudden death, they experience communication from Alex in different ways. Sam inexplicably begins transcribing messages from the dead, while Hannah paints one image over and over that she’s convinced is sent by her mother.

As these strange events unfold, Sam and his investigative partner, Jack, get drawn deeply into the web of a dangerous serial arsonist. Desperate for answers, Sam turns to his estranged girlfriend Sara—a forensic handwriting analyst—and a quirky young science prodigy for help. When the arsonist turns their attention to Sara and Hannah, Sam’s connection to his sister comes together in an unmistakable sign that may be his only hope.  

This new IE Snaps! mystery will have readers on the edge of their seats . . . and craving some plain, old cornbread.​
