Just when I thought I was getting my psychic mojo back, a vampire has to stroll into town. There is no such thing as vampires. Ghosts? Of course. Vampires? Please. Unfortunately, Mortimer Drake didn't get the memo. He disappeared forty years ago and has been living as a hermit until he claims he became the prey of a bloodthirsty man with fangs. The non-existence of vampires is something Gideon and I can agree on. However, my sixth sense informs me that something dark is chasing Morty. Gideon thinks my "gift" is on the fritz until Mortimer disappears, dead chickens begin to turn up in Mirror Falls and suspicion falls on sweet Hazel Ripe! If it wasn't for the belladonna growing in her garden or the fact that she's an expert in decomposition, she might have a chance of clearing her name. For once, Gideon is forced to think outside the box and seek my help. Naturally, with my ESP, I'm confident I'll have the job done by sunset. Until Mortimer's body turns up - bloodless - and there is nothing natural about this mystery.
