Publisher Description

Goths reenacting Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death" on Halloween night...what could possibly go wrong?


Despite her desire to make the Wisteria Tearoom a haven of tranquility, Ellen Rosings can't rid her parlors of the shadow of death. Fascinated with the tearoom's resident ghost, her customers flock to spirit-tours-with-tea, and to crown all, the office manager and her Goth friends plan a Halloween masquerade recreating a classic horror story.


Between his heavy workload and his fits of jealousy when Ellen looks at anything male, Detective Tony Aragón can't offer her much comfort.


Are the flashes of light she's been seeing some kind of message from the spirit world? Or is it just coincidence when a body turns up where she last saw a gleam?



This cozy mystery is the fifth in the Wisteria Tearoom Mysteries series.

Really horrible

I read the first three in the series and was hopeful the third might move the story along. I was wrong. It is almost as if it was written by another person, the entire "mystery" is about twenty pages toward the end of the book. The rest is serving tea, descriptions of clothing, etc. The author does not even bother to use the apace to explain past history - talks about Vi (a murder victim in a previous book) and a historical romance from the past books without any sort of brief explanation. The "romance" between the main characters is worse than any junior high school novel. The stupid LOTR or modern references were so out of place. I won't be reading any more in the series. Boring.
