Mystery Cozy

Sophie is getting into the Halloween season in a big way, both with her column and the town Haunted House. There are mysterious goings on in the house they have selected for the project. As always, Sophie is in conflict with her rival Natasha who is planning a spectacular Halloween party. When Sophie arrives at the party to find one guest dead on the lawn and a vampire fleeing the scene, life becomes hectic. There have always been rumors that a vampire lived in the boarding house that is now being used as their Haunted House. Is that vampire still in the area having killed for his latest meal? As Sophie's boyfriend, Wolf, investigates, Sophie will investigate as well. After all, one of the suspects is a student involved in the project and she must do all she can to protect him and the Haunted House. A cool head and a talent for finding the truth will lead Sophie to the identity of the killer and solve several mysteries at the same time. As Sophie deals with her niece, her boyfriend, and her ex-husband, there will be lots of scary events happening. This well-written story will keep the reader engrossed from start to finish with some entertaining tricks being played on unsuspecting townspeople. Ms. Davis has done a good job of keeping the series fresh and exciting.

SUMMARY

In the fifth mystery in the New York Times bestselling Domestic Diva series, Sophie Winston is getting into the Halloween spirit, but someone else is intent on mischief...

Sophie's decorations for a community haunted house are so good, it’s scary. Not to be outdone, rival domestic diva Natasha is throwing a spooktacular Halloween party at her house. But when Sophie arrives, she discovers one of Natasha’s guests dead in a hair-raising Halloween display, and a pale, fanged partygoer fleeing the scene.
 
The cause of death is not immediately apparent, but the victim does have two puncture wounds on his neck. While Sophie’s boyfriend, homicide detective Wolf, investigates, rumors start flying faster than witches on broomsticks. Could the killer be a real vampire—the same one rumored to have lived in Sophie’s haunted house back when it was a boardinghouse? Good thing a domestic diva never runs out of garlic...

Includes delicious recipes and entertaining tips!
