Holidays and Homicide (A Spellbound Bookshop Mystery Book 10)
By J A Whiting
This is book 10 in the Spellbound Bookshop paranormal small town, cozy mystery series by USA TODAY Bestselling Author J.A. Whiting.
Shelby Price owns the historic Spellbound Bookshop in the seaside town of Hamlet, Massachusetts. What she never expected was to develop the ability to hear her cat Harper speak, or to find herself at the center of a fifty-year-old mystery.
As winter blankets the charming coastal community, Shelby is decorating the bookshop for the holidays which harbors Emily, a resident ghost with unfinished business, and Harper, her Maine Coon cat who turns out to be far more than an ordinary feline companion.
When visiting sculptors create ice installations for the winter contest, secrets long buried in Hamlet’s past start to surface. The disappearance of a young town hall employee in 1973 has never been solved, and someone in town will go to desperate lengths to ensure it stays that way.
Teaming up with handsome local detective Travis Whitely, Shelby follows a trail of financial corruption, jealousy, and obsession that leads straight to the highest levels of Hamlet’s power structure. But as they get closer to the truth, the danger mounts, and Shelby realizes that some secrets were never meant to thaw.
With Harper’s keen senses, Emily’s ghostly assistance, and her own developing skills, Shelby must solve a decades-old murder before she becomes the next victim of Hamlet’s dark history.
A perfect read for fans of cozy paranormal mysteries with a touch of romance, history, and small-town charm.
This story has some mild paranormal elements.
