Murder She Wrote, Trick or Treachery
Donald Bain, Jessica Fletcher
Scared to Death It’s late October in Cabot Cove, and as Halloween
approaches, something strange is in the air. The arrival
of a self-righteous, fire-and-brimstone spiritual medium
has some townspeople on the lookout for curses and evil
omens; a reclusive, eccentric woman has others whispering
that she is a real-life witch; and the upcoming annual
Halloween party has Jessica Fletcher frantically searching
for the perfect costume. Then the whole town ends up spooked when the alleged witch
ends up dead in the graveyard, and everyone at the party is
a suspect. Jess takes it upon herself to stir through a
witches’ brew of motives – and concepts a scary scheme of
her own to make sure a guilty ghoul doesn’t get away with
murder.
