When a spectral pup believes in you, how can you doubt yourself? Janelle Brighton's psychic talents are more of a nuisance than a gift. After years of running from her abilities and her family's tangled legacy, she returns to Wyldwood Springs seeking a fresh start. Instead, she finds a body behind her jewelry store and a target on her back. Mr. Bixby, a resurrected dachshund with a flair for drama, insists Janelle is destined for more than mediocrity. Together, they embark on a quest to find her missing mother, restore a memory-impaired family ghost, and solve a murder that threatens to unravel their fragile peace among newfound friends. As magical mishaps and spectral surprises pile up, Janelle must confront the truth that denying her powers won't make them disappear. Embracing them might just save her life... and her town. In a place where the supernatural is natural, believing in yourself is the real magic. Love your cozies with hounds, humor, and a dash of haunt?
