  It's Halloween in Hell's Birth Canal, but when someone's killed at a costume party, Francie's determined to unmask the killer…  
  When a fellow partygoer is poisoned while bobbing for apples, Francie needs to get justice for her friend. But just days after the crime, she gets devastating news: the Jibbleson sisters’ fingerprints were found on the murder weapon. Even though most (okay, all) of their inventions explode, Francie knows they’d never commit murder. She promises to get them out of their jail cell and back to their workshop faster than you can sing the Monster Mash. 
  Knee-deep in the investigation, she gets a surprising card in the mail. A wedding invitation. Kong’s wedding. He met a stray alleycat days ago, but they’re ready to tie the knot. Her familiar is blinded by love, but Francie’s never seen things more clearly. This innocent little alleycat isn’t what she seems, and Francie’s got to save Kong before he vows ‘til death do you part’… because that’s exactly what the feline fatale has in mind. 
  To make matters worse, Hortensia tracked down one of the most dangerous of all the cursed books--the Eldertide Almanac. But the literary ghost of Mr. Hyde (Dr. Jekyll's alter ego) got to it first--and he's about to make this Halloween one for the record books. 
  Can Francie reveal the killer, save Kong and destroy the cursed book? Or will this Halloween be all tricks and no treats?

  WITH THE HELP OF AN ALASKA NATIVE GRANDMOTHER SUFFERING FROM DEMENTIA, VILLAGE POLICE CHIEF NATHAN ACTIVE HUNTS DOWN THE KILLER WHO HID A WOMAN’S DISMEMBERED BODY IN THE ICE CELLAR OF AN ABAN-DONED INUPIAT FISH CAMP. 
  The case starts when Tommie Leokuk’s husband brings her to Active’s office to show him what she found in her latest midnight ramble around the Arctic hamlet of Chukchi. From the pouch of her traditional atiqluk, she pulls a human jawbone with a single molar still in place. 
  Tommie’s dementia means she can’t explain where she found it. As her husband explains, “She lost her brain few years ago.” 
  At first, Chief Active doesn’t know whether she’s found a murder victim or an old grave opened by erosion or scavengers. 
  He soon discovers it’s very much a murder case, one of the most tangled he’s seen. The victim had two lovers, one male, one female. Both become suspects as the investigation proceeds. 
  At the same time, Active grapples with PTSD from being shot in a prior case. When he starts to wonder how his gun would taste, he realizes it’s time to see Chukchi’s tribal healer, Nelda Qivits, who believes anything can be cured by a cup of bitter sourdock tea in her little cabin on a back street of Chukchi.

  What readers are saying about Mary Grand: 
  ‘I’ve read all of Mary Grand’s book and this one is just another brilliant read. I loved the way the characters interact and the twists in finding out who the murderer was. A great book to curl up in a comfy seat and try to work out who done it!’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  ‘All Mary Grand’s books are great reading and her latest is no exception. I loved it!’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 
  ‘Truly could not put this book down and read on into the night. The main character is determined to save the mystery of her friend’s death and tho’ she was unwisely outspoken, at risk and often wrong, her efforts bring dividends. A reader has no option but to stay with her all the way.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It was so well done, and I didn’t guess whodunnit until the reveal. I really enjoyed it and plan to read more from this author in the future.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
