Ghoul Time

Wicked witches. Murder. Mystery. When a time bandit is on the loose, who are you going to call?

A cozy mystery with magic, witches, and a ghoul at a magical boarding school.

Not only is Vega Bloodmire the youngest teacher at the most prestigious magical boarding school for witches but she is also a powerful witch with a penchant for solving mysteries. During summer vacation while studying for the Merlin-class Celestor exam to prove to her enemies she is a powerful witch, Vega experiences a strange lapse in time. It happens again later, and this time, of all the indignities, she develops wrinkles. Whoever has done this must pay! The situation worsens when Vega realizes she isn’t the only one time has been stolen from. Days have passed for the sick orphan who has become her ward, making her even more ill. Others in the town nearby have had weeks stolen, resulting in their deaths. Vega recognizes this as the doings of time magic, but she has only met one witch out there wise enough and powerful enough to work it. Vega must go to her grandmother, Baba Nata, The Witch of Nightmares to find an answer to this problem. Can Vega discover who has been stealing time before another victim dies?This book starts with Vega Bloodmire’s life before working at Womby’s School for Wayward Witches when she was a new and inexperienced teacher at Lady of the Lake School for Girls. GHOUL TIME is the 12th book in the series of mysteries taking place at a magical academy, but these whodunnits are fine to be read in any order.

Clean, cozy, no sex or swearing, PG 13—perfectly fine for teens or grandmas who like mysteries with magic.
