It's time for the grand opening of Hawkwood Hollow’s first haunted hotel, and Maura and her friends are ready for the first guests to embark on their ghost tour. When a guest inexplicably drops dead of an apparent heart attack, it at first seems like a freak accident. But the victim's widow thinks otherwise, and she's determined to make Maura and her friends face the consequences. At first, Maura thinks the angry widow has lost her mind, but it soon becomes clear that there's a murderer in the area… and they aren't human.

The summer carnival has arrived at Ivory Beach, and Rory and her magical family are ready to enjoy the festivities. At least until a vampire shows up dead, a stake in his back, and a furious Evangeline sweeps in to take over the murder investigation. Edwin, head of the police, pleads with Rory to make her see reason, but the fearsome head of the local vampires refuses to be taken for a fool.

Maura and her ghostly brother, Mart, are finally making progress on revamping the Riverside Inn as a haunted tourist attraction. Now all they need to do is recruit some ghosts, which shouldn't be too hard in a town with more dead inhabitants than living ones. Unfortunately, the first spirit who shows up to try out for the job refuses to believe he's dead...at least until his zombie appears and attacks Maura. Alongside Drew, her boyfriend and the head of Hawkwood Hollow's police department, Maura finds herself entangled in a mystery that goes beyond a single ghost.

With summer on the way, Rory is looking forward to relaxing at the beach between her latest set of magical exams.
