Bitter Bobby and the Devil Woman
(2026)(The seventh book in the Jess and Libby Paranormal Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by A W Hartoin
The mother of all messes
A blast from the recent past
An unspeakable crime
When Jess and Libby take on their first pro bono case, they expect a challenge. What they don't expect is a ghost who refuses to cooperate, a pile of paperwork, and a deadline with real consequences for a client who's running out of time.
And just when they’re getting started, a paying case lands on their doorstep — literally. A desperate niece with a heartfelt plea and a murderer for an uncle isn't exactly their ideal case, but the cash is too good and the need too real to refuse.
Now they're juggling two cases, with no solid clues and more ghosts than they can manage. The trail winds through a haunted high school, a restaurant with a questionable clientele, and a farmhouse soaked in sorrow.
Jess and Libby have faced difficult ghosts, grieving families, and more than their share of chaos before. But two cases running at once, secrets buried on both sides, and a deadline that won't budge might be the thing that finally breaks them.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
