About this ebook

A death in a deserted department store has a Salem sleuth shopping for suspects . . .
 
After losing her job as a TV psychic, Lee Barrett has decided to volunteer her talents as an instructor at the Tabitha Trumbull Academy of the Arts—known as “The Tabby” —in her hometown of Salem, Massachusetts. But when the school’s handyman turns up dead under seemingly inexplicable circumstances on Christmas night, Lee’s clairvoyant capabilities begin bubbling to the surface once again.
 
The Tabby is housed in the long-vacant Trumbull’s Department Store. As Lee and her intrepid students begin work on a documentary charting the store’s history, they unravel a century of family secrets, deathbed whispers—and a mysterious labyrinth of tunnels hidden right below the streets of Salem. Even the witches in town are spooked, and when Lee begins seeing visions in the large black patent leather pump in her classroom, she’s certain something evil is afoot. But ghosts in the store’s attic are the least of her worries with a killer on the loose . . .

Ratings and reviews

I loved this book. The mystery had a lot of twists, the tiny bit of romance added to the feel good feeling of the story, and the "WWND" was amusing. I look forward to reading more from this new to me author.

The second book in the series was just as enjoyable as the first. Full of magic and mystery, but lighthearted and fun.

Great series
