Welcome to Litsy!

Mia Malone is planning a holiday party to promote her catering and cooking school business�but she�s got a Christmas spirit to deal with first, in this new Kitchen Witch Mystery from New York Times bestselling author Lynn Cahoon . . . For all its merriment, Christmas can also bring melancholy�and in Magic Springs, Idaho, Mia finds that the season has brought her an unhappy ghost who�s pulling poltergeist-style pranks to get her attention. When she demands an explanation, the ghost just sends a message: Ask Mary Alice�that is, Mia�s beloved Grans, who�s been training her to develop her witchy talents. If anyone can figure this out, it�s Grans . . . even if she still hasn�t managed to free Mia�s cat from a previous spell that she cast. The restless spirit turns out to be Magic Spring�s most well-known ghost, Dorothy, who supposedly died peacefully in her sleep. Now Dorothy claims she was murdered, and she wants her killer brought to justice. And she doesn�t have much patience about it, so the pressure is on Mia�with some help from her boyfriend, Trent, and a strangely secretive Grans. There aren�t many dicing-and-chopping days till Christmas�but this year, the most important gift Mia can give is to cheer up this troubled spirit . . . Includes Recipes!
