Ghoul's Night Out

Wicked witches. Murder. Mystery.A locked room mystery, a handsome detective, and a ghoul who is trying to keep her craving for fermenting flesh under wraps. What could possibly go wrong?

Vega Bloodmire has secrets-and she would like to keep them that way. She wants the world to see her as an ordinary wicked witch, not a ghoul who uses forbidden magic. Her plans for following the rules and hiding her scandalous abilities are threatened when a hot detective asks her for assistance solving a mystery.

The murder victim appears to be a former student from Lady of the Lake School for Girls, though not one Vega recognizes as one of her students. The room where the victim died was locked from the inside, the windows painted closed, and there were no other means of getting into the room. Is magic at work?

As the only competent, reliable witch the detective knows-not to mention one who isn't squeamish about corpses-it's up Vega to assist the police and find out how this victim died. And if she has her way, punish the wrongdoer.

Unfortunately, not is all as it seems. It's going to take more than magic to solve this mystery.

This book starts with Vega Bloodmire's life before working at Womby's School for Wayward Witches when she was a new and inexperienced teacher at Lady of the Lake School for Girls. Material Ghoul is the 21st book in the series of mysteries. The book takes place at a magical academy, but these whodunnits are fine to be read in any order.

Clean, cozy, no sex or swearing, PG 13-perfectly fine for teens or grandmas who like mysteries with magic.
