Talk about cut-throat competition!Boo Boudreaux's Halloween Boo-tique in offbeat Laguna Bay has its problems-a leaky roof, faulty wiring, and a talking shop cat who claims to be older than the pyramids.
One problem the place hasn't had in its thirty-five-year history is a rival, at least until a mysterious woman opens a spooky season-themed store across the street, which is luring away Boo's customers and ruining her chances of winning the town's annual Top Haunt window contest.
It's a monster-sized blow to Boo's business, but her financial troubles take a deadly turn when the contest judges find the business rival's corpse in a witch's cauldron, and no one looks guiltier than Boo.
Trying to clear her name, Boo rallies her cranky cat and her circle of eccentric friends to help her dig into the stranger's past. What they discover are troubling revelations that threaten to upend the peaceful community and unmask the town's most dangerous and closely guarded secrets.
Can Boo unmask the real killer to protect Laguna Bay's legacy, or will she become the next victim?
Includes a bonus recipe inspired by the book!
