Ghostly Graveyard Gambit
(2027)(The sixth book in the All Hallows Magical Inn Mystery series)
A novel by Kat McGee
When a ghost snatches your hat, it's not always a prank. Sometimes it's an invitation to a crime scene.
Evie Evermore should have known her turn as the festival's strolling witch wouldn't be simple. She stops to chat with the other witches, trading gossip and apple cider, when a mischievous ghost swoops down, plucks the pointed hat right off her head, and zooms toward the graveyard like it has somewhere urgent to be. Evie follows, because that hat was a gift from Bonejamin and he will never let her forget it.
That's when she finds the disturbed graves, the overturned earth, and a young man frantically digging with a crumpled flyer in his hand. The flyer promises buried treasure hidden somewhere among the headstones, and the young man swears he was only looking for it. But before Evie can lecture him on respecting the dead, Rascal's yowl draws her to the back of the graveyard, where a second treasure hunter lies very still, no longer worried about finding anything.
Now Evie has a body, a graveyard full of overnight holes, and a ghost who apparently knows more than it's telling. With her sardonic cat familiar sniffing out freshly turned soil, her meticulous clerk cataloging every disturbed plot, her animated skeleton offering grave-related omens from the inn, and her deliveryman friend helping her question the midnight ghost tour regulars, Evie must dig through a tangle of greed and local legend to find out who decided the treasure was worth killing for.
Because in All Hallows, some treasures should stay buried, and some ghosts don't play tricks. They lead you straight to the truth.
Featuring:
✔ A hat-stealing ghost with a purpose
✔ A treasure hunt luring fools to the graveyard
✔ Disturbed graves and a body among the headstones
✔ Talking cat familiar with a nose for disturbed earth
✔ Animated skeleton with strong dislike of hat theft
✔ Midnight ghost tours and small-town secrets
Follow the ghost, mind the open graves, and bring a flashlight. This cozy mystery digs up murder, mayhem, and one very irritated spirit.
