Bookstore café owner Krissy Hancock would rather spend Halloween
serving pumpkin goodies than wearing costumes with Pine Hills'
wealthiest at Yarborough mansion, especially when the soiree shapes up
to be more trick than treat . . .
As if a run-in with an old flame and a failed marriage proposal weren't
enough to horrify Krissy for one night, a woman is found strangled to
death in a room filled with ominous jack-o'-lanterns. All signs suggest
a crime of passion--but when the hostess's jewelry disappears,
malevolent intentions seem way more likely . . .
With the estate on lockdown and a killer roaming the halls, Krissy must
help Officer Paul Dalton investigate each nook, cranny, and guest for
answers--while also confronting a few demons of her own. Someone has
lots of skeletons in the closet, and Krissy better tread lightly to
expose them . . .
