About this ebook

The 5th Spookie Town Murder Mystery is finally out.

Who wouldn't want to find a chest of buried treasure, ancient gold coins and exquisitely priceless jewelry, on their land? A treasure a sailor dead for over seventy years once found in the shallow waters of a distant island and later buried, hid, the remnants of at the end of his tragic life. The townspeople of Spookie have been searching, fighting and killing each other over it, for decades and no one has ever unearthed it. Abigail, Frank, Myrtle and her psychic grandniece, Glinda, are on the hunt for the treasure…and they might just find it with Glinda's and the dead sailor's help. For Frank, ex-Chicago homicide detective, there's also a new and dangerous case that brings him temporarily out of retirement and back to Chicago because it threatens his adopted daughter Laura's safety at the art college she is attending. There are three missing college students, young women, one a close friend of Laura's, and the Chicago police force is feverishly searching for them before their abductors kill them. Can Frank, with a little help from Glinda's visions, and his old partner Sam Cato, locate the abducted girls in time and save their lives? All the rest of the quirky characters are also back again to share in the adventures, the mysteries, and the small town life of foggy Spookie. Come join them.

Better, Abby is still not very bright, and it's a bit too happy, their lives, you know? Life is never as perfect as there's and how they are so close, no arguments, perfect! That in itself is a fantasy! But she is a really good writer!

psychics, ghosts, greed, family, friendship, cozy-mystery, law-enforcement, small-town ***** Interesting lovely cozy mystery set in a rural small town. There's the rumors of hidden treasure, interesting characters with interesting lives, a horror to be solved by a retired homicide detective in the big city, and neighbors who need help. I've never read any of the earlier books but that didn't matter. I really enjoyed this one! The narrator is Nila Brereton Hagood who does a remarkable job! Her voice interpretation of Aunt Myrtle sounds just like our Aunt of about the same age and propensities! I won it in a giveaway and I really win!

About the author

About Kathryn Meyer Griffith…

Since childhood I’ve been an artist and worked as a graphic designer in the corporate world and for newspapers for twenty-three years before I quit to write full time. But I’d already begun writing novels at 21, over forty-five years ago now, and have had twenty-six (six romantic horror, four thrillers, three horror novels, two romantic SF horror, one romantic suspense, one romantic time travel, one historical romance and eight murder mysteries) previous novels, two novellas and twelve short stories published from many traditional publishers since 1984. But since 2012 I’ve gone into self-publishing in a big way; and upon getting some of my older books’ full rights back for the first time in 33 years, have self-published all of them along with my newer novels. My four Dinosaur Lake novels and four Spookie Town Mysteries (Scraps of Paper, All Things Slip Away, Ghosts Beneath Us and Witches Among Us) are my best-sellers. Once branded a horror writer, these days I consider myself a storyteller.

I’ve been married to Russell for thirty-nine years; have a son and two grandchildren and I live in a small quaint town in Illinois. We have a quirky cat, Sasha, and the three of us live happily in an old house in the heart of town. Though I’ve been an artist, and a folk/classic rock singer in my youth with my brother Jim, writing has always been my greatest passion, my butterfly stage, and I’ll probably write stories until the day I die…or until my memory goes.

2012 EPIC EBOOK AWARDS *Finalist* for her horror novel The Last Vampire ~ 2014 EPIC EBOOK AWARDS * Finalist * for her thriller novel Dinosaur Lake.
