A haunted manor, a Halloween séance, and an unlucky sleuth who can’t escape trouble…

Halloween is supposed to be fun—but for Jane Grey, it’s the worst day of the year. Her so-called bad luck curse goes haywire every October 31st. Black cats, broken heels, pumpkin mishaps—you name it, it happens to her. So when she and Hyde are invited to a Halloween gathering at Blackwell Manor, Jane braces herself for disaster.

Their client, Rowena Blackwell, is the flamboyant matriarch of the town’s most powerful witching family. She wants the detectives’ help in recovering a missing ancestral heirloom, a mysterious ring tied to her family’s occult past. The invitation includes a seat at the manor’s annual séance tradition, held on Halloween night to consult the ancestors. But before the candles burn out, the séance turns deadly, and Rowena collapses at the table while holding Jane’s hand.

Now everyone thinks Jane’s bad luck has struck again.

Trapped in the stormy manor with only suspects, Jane must unravel four spooky clues before the killer strikes again. But between Rowena’s black cat Hex, who keeps leading Jane straight into chaos, and her bad luck curse trying to destroy her, Jane is racing against the clock. And as if solving a Halloween murder weren’t enough, she can’t ignore the growing sparks with Hyde, even if every attempt to confess her feelings is interrupted by her cursed streak of bad luck.

Can Jane unmask the killer before another life is claimed? Or will Halloween end with her luck running out for good?
