The Corpse Collector Books 5-8

Welcome to Castle Point, Maine—where the ghosts never rest, the coffee's always brewing, and midlife is anything but quiet. Carrigan Critt is a forty-something funeral director with the inconvenient ability to see and speak with the dead. Between managing her family's funeral home, corralling her mischievous clowder of cats, and dodging her fabulously meddling mother Morgana, Carrigan has her hands full. Add in murder, mayhem, and a few restless spirits, and you've got a typical week in Castle Point. This four-book collection in the Corpse Collector Paranormal Women's Fiction Cozy Mystery series includes books 5-8: Ectoplasm & Espresso When Carrigan's morning routine is interrupted by the ghost of a deceased barista—who insists he was murdered—she's pulled into the tangled secrets of Castle Point's favorite coffee shop. But the more Carrigan investigates, the darker the roast gets. With ghostly gossip, romantic tension, and her cat Binx wreaking havoc on her newspaper, Carrigan must serve up justice before someone else gets burned. Frocked & Framed Carrigan's glamorous mother Morgana wakes up with a hangover, a missing pearl-handled pistol, and a murder accusation hanging over her perfectly styled head. With no memory of the night before and a trail of scandal behind her, Morgana is in desperate need of Carrigan's help. But digging through high society secrets may reveal more than just a killer—it might expose truths neither mother nor daughter are ready to face. Ghosts & Gals When two paranormal podcasters arrive in Castle Point and accidentally capture a ghostly plea for help on tape, they turn to Carrigan for answers. The death of a high-profile real estate mogul, originally ruled natural, now points to murder—and the spirit world is anything but silent. Carrigan must untangle motives among the living and the dead, before the next episode turns into a eulogy. Horrors & Hooks Just as Carrigan and her "Hookers" settle in for a relaxing crochet session, a local man with a disturbing obsession turns up dead—surrounded by a creepy shrine to Carrigan's best friend, Trixie. As tensions rise and secrets unravel, Carrigan must stitch together the truth behind the murder, all while protecting her friend and dodging another attempt on her own life. Smart, snarky, and steeped in small-town charm, this boxed set is perfect for fans of paranormal women's fiction, cozy mysteries, and heroines embracing midlife on their own terms—even if it means speaking to the dead and chasing down killers. Because in Castle Point, the afterlife is just the beginning.
