The Great Potato Murder

My aunt is dead… Julie Ann is no stranger to death, having endured the death of her parents, but that didn’t prepare her for finding that her beloved Aunt Cynth is now a ghost. Cynth, a famous mystery writer, was murdered by one of her own story lines-a poisoned potato. She stayed behind to help solve her own murder, but this has added its own set of challenges as they must keep Cynth’s death a secret. Julie Ann and her aunt have a crew of unusual suspects to sift through to find the determined killer who keeps trying to murder Cynth and pin it on Julie Ann. Can the two of them solve the murder and keep Julie Ann from being the next victim? After 25 years of volunteering for Junior High author Mary Haley has a pretty good idea what that age level wants.
