"With all the stress of opening her new vintage clothing store (housed in the renovated old town morgue), Madeira Cutler feels like a bag of bones--until she discovers the real deal, unearthed by a snooping intruder, in one of the old body drawers. And the bones are as vintage as Maddie's stock (Classic Mod--so 60's!), or so says Maddie's sexy resident ghost, Dante Underhill. Could the break-in have something to do with the local playhouse and its curator going down in flames? Somehow Maddie will have to juggle dressing the store, party planning, and crime solving all at once. Add to the brew the local witch's costume ball, which is being held at her store, and Madeira is wishing she knew how to ride a broom right out of there"--P.[4] of cover.
