Be A Detective They Said It'll...

Dakota Cassidy

Wanda Jefferson, vampire/werewolf hybrid and (very) reluctant temporary PTA president, reporting for duty! 
 
 
 
I'd do anything for my two precious babies, Olivia and Sam, including whip up batches of cupcakes late into the night for their annual bake sale at the Paranormal School for the Gifted. And if I have to endure the most insufferable, controlling, bossy-pants PTA president in all of existence who goes by the name Neerie Lincoln—so be it. 
 
 
 
Except today, Neerie's a no-show, leaving me in charge of the event. Neerie's sister claims she's been missing for two days. When she begs me and my besties, Nina and Marty, to put our fledgling detective skills to work to find her, we're reluctant. 
 
 
 
Of course, Neerie has also left a recently disgruntled ex, a loser baby-daddy, and a long line of horribly mistreated people in her wake. 
 
 
 
Oh . . . and have we mentioned Neerie's absolutely obsessed with conspiracy theories? And the human groups devoted to them? Yep. The suspect pool just got a whole lot bigger. 
 
 
 
Diving headlong into Neerie's crazy world of nutball conspiracies, Nina, Marty and I thought we'd seen every form of weird during our various Accidental adventures. 
 
 
 
We were SO wrong . . .
