ALT Book cover of Twicetime by Carol Carman. Front cover shows a pub sign depicting the head of a lamb peeking between the ears on the the head of a werewolf. Back cover shows an old-fashioned Frankenstein-type laboratory with a body wrapped in bandages on a slab. Working on back cover reads as follows: Building a bodyguard to kill your aristocratic niece’s vengeful ex-husband should be easy for a witch. All you need is the right body and the right magic, and soon you have a mindless killer to do your bidding. Of course, it all depends on what the butler brings back from the cemetery. For Frances Stein, reanimating the dead is one thing; convincing the corpse there’s life after death is another. Finding out he’s neither mindless nor killer is something else entirely. Especially when he’s her last hope, because they both have a limited lifespan, and time is literally running out… Note: no lambs or werewolves were harmed during the making of this book.
