Magic and Mystery Izzy Wilder
My name is Esme Hightower, and I’m a psychic-in-training.
Dead people like to contact me at the most inopportune times, and I’ve learned that not all spirits play nice. Especially the disgruntled ones. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what I’m dealing with now. But that’s not my only problem. I have to solve the mystery of a stolen urn before an unfriendly ghost causes chaos. A tough task for someone who’s not a full-fledged psychic.
I hope I’m up for the challenge. If not, I’ll tarnish my family’s name and disgrace my favorite aunt—a well-known psychic who’s been widely respected for ages.
Life is never easy, but this is crazy. Wish me luck!
Magic and Mystery is the prequel to the Southern paranormal cozy mystery series, Channeling Ghosts for Beginners. It can be read as a standalone, but it’s also a great way to begin the series.

The holidays have arrived, and the Jolly Holly Tree Lot is hosting a special event that has pets and people alike bustling to get a picture with the jolly old elf himself. My sweet cats are just as anxious as I am to get to the front of the line, but that body I stumble upon threatens to take the joy right out of the season.
Lottie Lemon has a brand new bakery to tend to, a budding romance with perhaps one too many suitors, and she has the supernatural ability to see the dead—which are always harbingers for ominous things to come. Throw in a string of murders, and her insatiable thirst for justice, and you’ll have more chaos than you know what to do with.
Living in the small town of Honey Hollow can be murder.

Ghosts of Gelatos Past M. Alfano
Mardi Gras is in full swing in the French Quarter, and my family’s bar and bakery is busier than usual.
Which also means police presence is up, but I’m not too peeved about Mr. Hottie Detective, Brad Sullivan, hanging around.
Or I thought I wasn’t until a ghost from my past decides to show up at our St. Joseph Alter, eating our gelato and telling me I need to help her make amends.
Now, not only do I have to work on the busiest night of the year, but I have to help out a ghost without anyone knowing.
Mamma Mia, sometimes being a Strega isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Endorsed by Ellery Queen! That's impressive.
I love the inside view of a magician's world, and really love Eli Marks! This mystery kept me guessing.
This writer powerful writing comes across in this thriller short about a murder at the opening of a performance. I thoroughly enjoyed this and look forward to more from this brilliant mind.

Dog Gone Troubles Karen McSpade
Magic in this witch's family has a name: Trouble.
Meet Sidney Grace: Quirky Journalist. Curious Witch. Professional Butterfingers.
Sidney Grace, a young journalist living in Boston, is not ready for all the troubles heading her way. For starters, she’s curious about her grandmother’s magic even though her spellcasting is a bit rusty. Sidney finds herself caught between her curiosity to learn more and her mother’s hatred for all things supernatural. After all, her mom has a Tupperware empire to run and magic isn’t part of her business plan! The fact that her dad doesn’t seem to be bothered by an occasional spell gone wild, isn’t smoothing the waters between these two matriarchs.
But the family drama and her untapped magic are the least of Sidney’s troubles. Things turn worse when her new boss asks Sidney to cover the annual Pup Parade and she makes a terrible mistake that could cost her career…and ultimately her life.

A Dog with Two Tales Ellen Riggs
Rescuing this pup could bring her a whole new life… if it doesn’t kill her first.
Ivy Galloway doesn’t know how desperate she is to escape the big city and her soul-sucking corporate career until she meets a sheepdog in need of rescue, too. Ivy has downsized so many staff that her boss calls her “the grim reaper” of HR but it’s the only job she’s known. It would take something huge to make her leave that behind.
Or something small… like a pup in the wrong hands. Criminal hands.
Enlisting her best friend, she confronts the dog’s deadbeat owner with logic, humor and professional courtesy. When her HR skills fall flat, however, conservative Ivy starts breaking the rules. The clever dog digs in to help by unearthing a chilling clue that could put his owner away for good.
Can Ivy and the pup she loves evade a genuine grim reaper long enough to gain a new leash on life in the country?
This short prequel to the laugh-out-loud Bought-the-Farm Mystery series.

Murder at Pawprint Creek Cindy Bell
Join pet sitter, Nikki, and her furry companions for a fun-filled cozy mystery that will keep you guessing until the end!
Nikki Green wouldn’t trade her job as a dog walker and pet sitter for anything. But even she needs an occasional break from the tangled leashes of her daily routes. When she’s asked to pet sit a pair of adorable pugs in a quaint farm town, she thinks she’s found her perfect vacation. But the grass isn’t greener in Pawprint Creek. The crops are as dead as one of the town’s residents.
Surrounded by suspects who all seem to be relieved that the victim is dead, Nikki can’t bear to sit around while the killer walks free. Along with her new canine companions, Sunny and Stormy, she searches for clues, but when everyone seems to have a motive, she finds that she might have bitten off more than she can chew.
In a town where gossip spreads like wildfire, she’d better catch the killer fast before she becomes the next victim.
