Blurb:
Middle age can be murder ...
At least that’s how it seems to former crime journalist,
Wilhelmina Chance, whose near-fatal accident has given her a strange side
effect ... she sees ghosts.
After a messy divorce sends her fleeing back to her hometown
of Mystic Notch, nestled in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, Willa finds
herself haunted by the tenacious ghost of the town librarian who insists Willa
solve her murder.
Luckily, she has lots of help, including a quirky cast of
small-town characters, the cat she’s inherited from her grandmother, and her
best friend, Pepper, who claims her herbal teas can work magic.
But just when Willa thinks she’s discovered who the killer
is, she finds out that things are not what they seem in Mystic Notch, and the
case takes a strange turn that has Willa adding even some of her long-time
friends to her suspect list.
Can Willa find the real killer in time to keep the magical
balance in Mystic Notch on the side of good, or will evil prevail?
My review:
Ghostly Paws is a cute cozy mystery. I love that the lead is
an older woman who still holds an appeal for the opposite sex. The mystery was
suitably confusing if not true to the character. When I think of crime
reporters I think of dogged determination to get at the truth. Our lead does
that but is convinced she knows the truth when she in fact does not. Still I
enjoyed the book and will look into the further adventures in Mystic Notch.
