The votes are in! Eccentric seventy-something Vivian
Borne—elected county sheriff, to everyone’s amazement but
her own—springs into action. In her new role, the community
playhouse diva appoints daughter Brandy reluctant deputy and
makes their spunky shih tzu Sushi a K-9 unit of one.
Soon the amateur-sleuths-turned-pro have a challenging case
to solve as a series of creepy crimes plague an ill-fated
Edgar Allan Poe festival, where a fiend is misguidedly
dispensing Poe-etic justice. Small-town Antiqua, known for
its quaint main street of antique shops, has set out to
celebrate the gothic poet with food, fun, and rare
memorabilia, only to have the Master of the Macabre’s
twisted tales come to deadly life.
A purloined tome, a black cat, a musty mausoleum, and
mysterious disappearances—these tell the tale of a heartless
murderer. But Vivian and Brandy Borne are determined to
decipher the cryptic clues to make sure a ravin’-mad killer
strikes “nevermore”!
