A Spellbound Bookshop Mystery

It's holiday time and Shelby Price is decorating her bookshop in the seaside town of Hamlet on the North Shore of Massachusetts when she falls off a ladder and is knocked unconscious. When Shelby wakes up, she can hear her cat Harper talking to her. One evening, Shelby and her best friend Lucy attend a holiday festival at the Harris Estate on the outskirts of town. After enjoying the outdoor festivities and attractions, the young women head into the mansion for a tour of the place. During the tour, Shelby feels uneasy and anxious, and smells smoke for a moment, but then the odor is gone.

It's May in the seacoast town of Hamlet, Massachusetts and Shelby Price is enjoying the warmth of the spring weather. Her bookshop has an outdoor patio where customers can sit to read, sip a beverage, or eat some pastry. Five months ago, Shelby fell off a ladder and hit her head and when she woke up, she could hear her cat talking to her. Not only could she converse with the feline, but she started to develop some paranormal powers. Initially shocked and frightened by what was going on, Shelby came to accept her new skills and has been working to better understand what she can do with them.
