Description

Where the sixth Spookie Town Murder Mystery was more Abby's and Frank's stories, their mysteries to deal with, solve and remain alive through; this seventh book is old Myrtle's story. Two mysteries, one from her far distant past of over seventy-years ago; and one for the future, a dire prediction (only a prediction as I didn't want to venture into the actual time of the pandemic because we are living through it and that has been difficult enough) of a pandemic from her grandniece, Glinda, the psychic, that will affect not only Spookie and its inhabitants, but the whole world. Mysterious bones are unearthed in the ground behind Luke's Hardware Store, and Frank and the sheriff are determined to find out whose bones they are, and how the victim died…even though whatever happened occurred over seventy years ago. This seventh novel also revisits some of Spookie's best loved characters and catches the readers up on what they've been up to recently. Then again, the town and its people are still as eccentric and quirky as ever, and the fog is always witness to their shenanigans.

    I love Kathryn’s books, especially the Spookie town series. Unfortunately for me, this one missed the mark for me. Loved the storyline with Myrtle and her friends, but bringing in the Covid storyline was a real downer for me. I’m one of those more “vulnerable” people (old and existing conditions!😂), so very depressing having to also read a fiction book of what we’re going through.
  • Almost the best.

    This was shaping up to be one of the better books in this series. Right up until Glinda predicts COVID-19. I read fiction books to escape real life. I was very disappointed. I honestly only finished the book because I wanted to know what happened to Hattie.
