The first in a new Pacific Northwest-set mystery series inspired by the real "Halloweentown!"Bailey Briggs adores her year-round Halloween-themed town of Elyan Hollow, Oregon. But when she takes over her grandfathers beloved bookshop, Lazy Bones Books, she accidentally discovers the towns secret dark side . . .Normally, spooky season is Bailey Briggs favorite time of year, and her Halloween-themed small towns time to shine. But between managing Lazy Bones Books, working on her graphic novel-in-progress, and running the Spooky Season Literary Festival, Bailey hardly has a moment to enjoy Elyan Hollows spot-on seasonal vibes. Not to mention, at every turn she seems to be tripping over the contentious crew of Gone Ghouls, a ghost-hunting reality TV show currently filming around town. Bailey tries to stay focused on the Lit Festival, which is supposed to kick off Elyan Hollows annual Halloween Fair; instead, this years festival begins with a murder . . .Its bad enough Bailey discovered the victim, but now, as a lead suspect with some (admittedly) damning evidence pointing her way, shes got to clear her name! With the help of her librarian friend, Colby, and Jack Skeleton, her world-class bookshop dog (and the absolute bestest boy ever), Bailey sets out to solve a murder . . .As her investigation weaves through family secrets, professional rivalries, and town feuds, the list of suspects is growing fast . . . and unfortunately, so is the list of victims. If Bailey doesnt find the killer soon, Elyan Hollows haunted reputation will get a little too real . . .
