Candy, Cauldrons, and a Corpse

A spellbinding Halloween witch cozy mystery with a talking cat, small-town secrets, and a dash of midlife magic.

Boo Boudreaux’s Halloween Boo-tique in quirky Laguna Bay has seen its share of tricks—leaky roof, faulty wiring, and a talking cat who swears she’s older than the pyramids.

But this Halloween season brings a new fright: a rival store across the street that’s stealing Boo’s customers and threatening her chance to win the town’s Top Haunt Window Contest.

When the rival shop owner turns up dead—found face-down in a witch’s cauldron—all eyes turn to Boo. With her reputation and business on the line, she’ll have to summon her wits, her witchy intuition, and her cranky feline familiar to clear her name.

As Boo digs into the stranger’s past, she uncovers dark secrets lurking beneath Laguna Bay’s sunny surface—and discovers that some ghosts of the past refuse to stay buried.

Can Boo and her friends unmask the killer before the next victim’s name is carved in stone?

This charming paranormal cozy mystery delivers Halloween magic, witty banter, and one unforgettable talking cat.
