Rescuing this sassy dachshund would be a lot easier if he were actually alive.
Janelle Brighton is not a witch, although she knows a thing or two about magic. For starters, she can see ghosts, or at least one. She can read minds, at least some. And she can zap people with a little energy burst that scrambles their brains, at least for a while. But she's not very good at any of it. She's either a late bloomer, as her grandmother says, or a dud bud.
That's why it comes as a shock when a jewelry store heist and a murder in Gran's community also reveal a plot against Janelle's life. Someone desperately wants to prevent her from heading back home to Wyldwood Springs to face the ghosts of her past.
Luckily, the ghost of her present?a cocky, chatty dachshund named Mr. Bixby?holds the key to at least one mystery. And if they can rescue each other before the killer rids the world of this slightly underrated non-witch, they may just be a match for magical threats to come.
Join psychic Janelle Brighton in this short prequel to the Mystic Mutts Mysteries series, a paranormal cozy mystery featuring a saucy dachshund, several ghosts and murders to solve. If you also enjoy mysteries for pet-lovers without magic, try Ellen Riggs' Bought the Farm series.
