9 posts | 4 read | 3 to read
As the town of Greenwich, Connecticut, counts down to a spooky celebration on October 31st, a horrifying murder leaves Melanie Travis pawing for clues in a hair-raising game of trick-or-treat . . . With just a few days left before Halloween, everyone at Howard Academy is anticipating the guaranteed sugar high theyll experience from gorging on Harriet Blooms famous marshmallow puffs. The private schools annual costume party revolves around the headmasters assistant and her seemingly supernatural batches of gooey goodies. So, it's a shock when Harriets elderly neighbor is suddenly found dead with the beloved dessert in his hand. In a snap, police start questioning whether Harriet modified her top-secret recipe to include a hefty dose of lethal poison . . . Melanie knows her tenured colleague would never intentionally serve cyanide-laced puffs to a defenseless old man. But as explosive neighborhood gossip reveals a potential culprit, it also brings her closer to sealing her own doom. Because on an evening ruled by masked revelers, bizarre getups, and hidden identities, Halloween might just be the perfect opportunity for a cold-hearted killer to get away with murder once againthis time sending a nosy, unsuspecting sleuth to an early grave!

Cute, lighthearted cozy mystery. Clare, the amateur sleuth, has an adorable Standard Poodle companion named Faith, who adds a lot of heart to the story. The Halloween theme adds fun.

And knocked this one out today too! I liked this book, and while there were a lot of dogs in the story- it wasn‘t the main plot so I‘m definitely confused why the title was so heavily focused on dogs😂 other than that, I did enjoy this! #scarathlon #TeamSlaughter

I can't believe Howloween Murder is the 26th book in the Melanie Travis series! I've enjoyed each and every one and this short cozy mystery Halloween story was the perfect book to read after a couple of much heavier books! When one of Howard University's own is suspected of murder, Melanie steps in to help find the truth. With some funny side notes and a touching ending, I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this latest edition to the series 😁

Soubhiville I ❤️ your little vampire 🧛🏻‍♀️😊 4y
TheHeartlandBookFairy @Soubhiville Thank you, he's pretty sweet ❤️ but he's always been a chewer and that's why he has a vampire costume😂 4y
