Holly Miller has returned with all
her possessions to the Sugar Maple Inn in Wagtail, VA. She is
now a partner in this fabulous hotel with her grandmother Liesel.
This tourist town caters to your pets. Right now Holly is busy
with the guests – especially the ghost hunting team--Apparition
Apprehender. They are in Wagtail to film a pilot for a possible
series. Holly is also busy with the bonfire to be held near
the haunted Wagtail Springs Hotel.
The bonfire is a big success. The members of the ghost hunting
crew are not having a wonderful time. Mallory has been flirting
up a storm and causing problems with the crew. When Holly
finally gets home, she gets a call from her Aunt Birdie. At
four in the morning, Holly rushes to help her aunt. She arrives
and finds it was only a ploy to get Holly to visit. Holly
leaves and takes the golf cart back to the Sugar Maple Inn.
On the way she thinks she sees her dog and cat near the gazebo
on the Wagtail Springs Hotel property. As she gets close –
Holly sees something floating in the mineral springs located
in the gazebo. It is a body and when Holly turns it over –
she sees it is Mallory. Holly had better be careful solving
this murder--- or she could be scared to death.
Things to ponder: How did Twinkletoes and Trixie get out
of Holly's apartment? Who is the man spying on Clementine
and her children? Who tried to break into Liesel's kitchen?
This is a fun series and this second book does not disappoint.
This is a fast- paced page turner. Once I started reading
this book – I could not put it down. Cozy mystery lovers
will thoroughly enjoy this read. The author has thoughtfully
provided some recipes for people as well as pets. So if you
like your mystery with a lot of purrs, then you should be
reading The Ghost and Mrs. Mewer.
