The Midlife in Castleberry Paranormal Cozy Mystery Series

IT'S ALL JUST ANOTHER DAY IN CASTLEBERRY, WHERE THE PAST ISN'T JUST HISTORY, IT'S THE TALK OF THE TOWN.

Welcome back to Castleberry, Georgia. Sit down, grab a sweet tea, and buckle up for a story filled with twists and turns!

Castleberry is your usual small Southern town, where everyone knows your business before you do, and the biggest event of the year is Peach Pie Festival, where something shady always happens.

Some people like their peach pie with ice cream, but me? I like mine delivered to me by a ghost and with a side of murder.
Twenty-five years ago, Anna Mae Hansard did what the town thought impossible – dropped off her water bill at the post office, then disappeared without a trace. The gossip train took off at lightning speed, but a few days later, a note from Anna may popped up at the police station. She claimed to have left town willingly. Everyone knew why. Her husband, Clevis Hansard, had a temper and the local police were more familiar with their living room than their own precinct.

Enter Detective Jack Levitt, a fresh-faced newbie to the title. He conducted his own investigation but hit more dead ends than a corn maze.

Fast forward to 2023, while Jack and I were taste-testing peach pies when Anna Mae returns. Here's the kicker – she's a ghost, and I'm the only one with a VIP pass to the spirit world.

Anna Mae drops a bombshell – she left Castleberry alright, not by choice, but in a manner more suited to a mafia movie. Now, she's on a spectral mission for justice, and guess who she's enlisted as her earthly detective? Yep, yours truly, along with my detective husband, of course, who finally believes spirits can get stuck in the space between here and the here-after.
So, we're off on a wild ride to catch a killer, but in Castleberry, digging up the past is like opening your grandmo
