Rescuing this sassy dachshund would be a lot easier if he were actually alive.Janelle Brighton is not a witch, although she knows a thing or two about magic. For starters, she can see ghosts, or at least one. She can read minds, at least some. And she can zap people with a little energy burst that scrambles their brains, at least for a while. But she's not very good at any of it. She's either a late bloomer, as her grandmother says, or a dud bud.That's why it comes as a shock when a jewelry store heist and a murder in Gran's community also reveal a plot against Janelle's life. Someone desperately wants to prevent her from heading back home to Wyldwood Springs to face the ghosts of her past.Luckily, the ghost of her present-a cocky, chatty dachshund named Mr. Bixby-holds the key to at least one mystery. And if they can rescue each other before the killer rids the world of this slightly underrated non-witch, they may just be a match for magical threats to come.Join psychic Janelle Brighton in this short prequel to the Mystic Mutts Mysteries series, a paranormal cozy mystery featuring a saucy dachshund, several ghosts and murders to solve.
