The Case of the Poisoned Pumpkin Pie - Paperback

by B. I. Skinner (Author)

In a town where the pies are to die for someone actually does! Now Glenwood Springs only ghost whisperer must sift through a recipe of lies to catch a killer, before her best friend is forced to trade her apron for prison stripes.

Welcome to Glenwood Springs, Colorado, where the autumn leaves aren't the only things stirring up trouble this fall.

When celebrity chef Sebastian LeClair suddenly retires to this quaint mountain town, the locals are thrilled - until he drops dead after tasting a pumpkin pie at the Great Harvest Pie Showdown. Worse yet, the poisoned pie came from Sol Conceptions Bakery, owned by Holly's best friend Juliet.

As a Paranormal Private Investigator with a talent for communicating with spirits, Holly is used to unusual cases. But with Juliet's bakery losing customers and the police gathering evidence, she'll need more than her ghost-whispering abilities to solve this murder. At least she has help: Clara, her 145-year-old ghostly roommate; Mystery, a sarcastic ghost cat; and Wendy, her witchy best friend who owns the local bookstore.

The problem? Sebastian LeClair had a gift for making enemies, leaving Holly with a menu of suspects longer than the hotel's wine list. And someone isn't happy about her investigation, warning her to back off - or else.

Between occasionally tending bar at the historic Red Castle Hotel, where the murder took place, dodging threats, and trying to keep her growing attraction to the surly-but-handsome Sheriff Mack professional, Holly must uncover the truth before the killer serves up another deadly surprise.

A deliciously charming paranormal cozy mystery that proves revenge is a dish best served cold - with a slice of pumpkin pie on the side.
