A retired detective thinks that all he will have to do on Halloween is hand out candy to trick-or-treaters. Everything goes well until all the children in costume come and go, and then the phone calls begin. One of them comes from his former Chief of Police, whom he and his former partner have promised that they will come out of retirement whenever there is a murder in their small town. Not only do they have to go out on a dark night in the pouring down rain, but they have to head out to a remote part of the county where almost no one lives to a place where someone has texted and reported that someone has been murdered. All they have to go on is the location of the cell phone. Before he solves the case, he is confronted with several suspects, none of whom seem to have motives or alibis. This is another whodunit in the Dekker Cozy Mystery series, full of twists and turns and lots of humor.

Sunni Taylor's sisters, through their power of sisterly persuasion, have convinced her to host a Halloween costume party at Cider Ridge Inn. She's a little reluctant about the whole event and rightly worried about the actual ghost, who will, no doubt, be in attendance, but she decides to just relax and enjoy it. Of course, you can't have a spooky Halloween party without toothy-grinned jack-o'-lanterns. Sunni talks Jackson into spending their day off at a local pumpkin patch. The Riggle Family Farm is famous for its sprawling pumpkin patch and mind-boggling corn maize. Sunni and Jackson look forward to a day in the autumn breeze sipping cider, nibbling on candy corn and choosing the best pumpkins for the party. But when one of the Riggles is murdered, the day off turns into a murder investigation. And once again, Sunni has a front seat to the chaos.

April Claus, a recent arrival in Santaland (from Oregon, where she still runs an inn during the summer months), gets permission to celebrate a holiday other than Christmas in her new home--Halloween. That prompts the self-styled Pumpkin Slayer to target a greenhouse full of gourds, leaving behind "jagged chunks of pumpkin flesh and streams of seedy entrails." Later, a post evidently from the Slayer appears on the equivalent of Santaland's Facebook: "STOP HALLOWEEN IN CHRISTMASTOWN OR ELSE!!!" Though the local representative of the law, Constable Crinkles, doesn't take the threat seriously, April does, after someone attempts to kill her by sabotaging the workings of the funicular car she was riding in. That narrow escape is followed by the murder of a Santaland business owner, who was apparently squashed to death by an abominable snow monster.

There’s peril at the Pumpkin Fest in this Maine-set mystery by the New York Times-bestselling author… Halloween is coming to Tinker’s Cove, Maine, and local reporter Lucy Stone is covering the annual Giant Pumpkin Fest for the Pennysaver. There’s the pumpkin-boat regatta, the children’s Halloween party, the pumpkin weigh-in…even a contest where home-built catapults hurl pumpkins at an old Dodge! But not everything goes as planned. Lucy’s getting annoyed that her husband, Bill, and his friend Evan have been working seemingly nonstop on their potentially prize-winning pumpkin catapult. But on the day of the big contest, Evan is nowhere to be found…until a catapulted pumpkin busts open the trunk of the Dodge, revealing a deceased Evan. Bill’s on the hook for the Halloween homicide, so Lucy’s got some serious sleuthing to do. With each new lead pointing her in a different direction, Lucy learns that if she wants to spook the real killer, she’ll have to step into an old ghost story… “Series fans should be satisfied.” —Publishers Weekly “Reading a new Leslie Meier mystery is like catching up with a dear old friend.” —Kate Carlisle
