🧠 Plot Overview
It’s peak tourist season in Mintwood, and the town is buzzing—until bones are discovered on the library grounds. The victim’s ghost, Isabel Gray, turns up at Greer’s bar, hoping for a drink but settling for a sniff of rum. When Lemmi questions her, Isabel accuses every member of her family of being capable of murder.
As Lemmi investigates this ghostly whodunit, she’s also pulled into a second mystery: the Witch of Hazelwood has gone missing, and the local coven calls on Lemmi to uncover the truth. With two cases on her hands, Lemmi must navigate magical politics, family drama, and some very unpleasant truths.
