She bought a manor for a new beginning, not a murder investigation... or a magical destiny.
Escaping the invisibility of a draining divorce and career burnout, Lenora Blackwell pinned all her hopes on Gloomwood Manor. The crumbling gothic estate in eerie Eldergloom wasn't just a B&B project; it was her desperate bid for a fresh start, for purpose, and perhaps a little magic. But before the first renovation nail is hammered, her slimy real estate agent is found dead in her garden-and Lenora, the newcomer haunted by her recent past, is the prime suspect.
Trapped by a strange magical binding and her inconveniently reawakening psychic senses, Lenora must navigate a town brimming with eccentric locals and well-kept secrets. With a judgmental cat (who might be an ancient guardian) as her furry confidante, a handsome, skeptical detective watching her every move, and a charming local barman offering a friendly ear (and perhaps more?), clearing her name seems impossible. To reclaim her future, Lenora must not only solve a clever murder but also decide if she's ready to embrace the unexpected paranormal gifts offering the belonging she's always craved.
Perfect for readers who know it's never too late for a second act-especially one with a side of enchanting magic, found family, and a truly killer cup of tea. If you love witty heroines, small-town paranormal mysteries, romantic suspense, and a touch of the unexpected, step into Eldergloom.
