"Anyone is capable of murder, given the right motivation."
When a girl is found dead of hypothermia in the middle of an Atlanta heat wave, the police are baffled. But Tara Sharp thinks it may be just the clue she needs to find her missing little sister. As she unravels the complex case, she becomes one of nine suspects, each a different number on the Enneagram, in the murder of Michael Higgins.
Each suspect will be true to their Enneagram number as they navigate stressful situations, like meeting a boyfriend's parents for the first time, or planning a murder. Read along to unlock clues to which character is which number on the Enneagram-and, of course, which is the killer!

About the Author
Reviews
"Kate Hallock's murder mystery, Nine Ways to Die, is one of those novels that begs to be read in one sitting. The author's overlay of an Enneagram puzzle onto a traditional murder mystery is imaginative and wonderfully engaging. Who is which Enneagram personality type? Who is the killer?" -R. Barbara Gitenstein, President Emerita, The College of New Jersey, Author of Experience is the Angled Road: Memoir of an Academic
"Kate Hallock has written, in Nine Ways to Die, an old-fashioned, who-done-it novel. A murder mystery, a sex trafficking ring, a ticking clock on saving a kidnapped girl, and an Enneagram subplot to entice and entertain would-be sleuths . . . good fun and impossible to put down. A well-told story with dysfunctional family dynamics from hell. Buy this book, but don't put it on your bedside table, unless you don't mind reading all night." -Randy Sanders, Author of Mighty Peculiar Elections: New South Gubernatorial Campaigns of 1970 and the Changing Politics of Race
"I loved reading Nine Ways to Die, a combo thriller/locked-door mystery-so clever! It is a fun puzzle for the readers to figure out." -Michelle Krueger, SWContent
"What sets the Enneagram apart from other personality tools is that it identifies someone's core motivation. It provides insight into the 'why' behind the 'what.' In Kate Hallock's Nine Ways to Die, she cleverly depicts the motivations of all nine types in a way that captures the importance of motivational differences and the impact they have on one's actions. Whether you're an Enneagram enthusiast or just like a good mystery, Nine Ways to Die is a fun read that keeps you intrigued and allows you to explore different personalities with an interesting and fun approach!" -Hilarie Kay, Enneagram Coach, Trainer, and Author of Unlock Your Potential at Work: A Beginner's Guide to Using the Enneagram
"Kate Hallock's Nine Ways to Die: An Enneagram Murder Mystery is reminiscent of a good ole Agatha Christie novel where there is a dead body, and everyone present in a large, stately home has a motive. . . . a fun whodunit that keeps you guessing as you quickly turn the pages. Hallock addresses a real problem-human trafficking-with knowledge and concern but adds twists and turns. . . . I challenge you to read this book and see if you can figure out the surprise ending!" -Dr. Carolyn Curry, Author of Suffer and Grow Strong: The Life of Ella Gertrude Clanton Thomas: 1934-2007 and Sudden Death: A Novel, Georgia Author of the Year Award 2015
