Forced Entry?

by Bill Lockwood

Category: Mystery & Detective / Cozy / General

Henrietta moves in with her mother, Leila, on the coast of California. Leila, an actress in semi-retirement, has a bad heart, and Henrietta hopes to inherit a fortune soon. To hurry that along, she enlists help from a young man she meets at a party, has him paint messages on the house and leave strange verses hinting at murder. She orchestrates several other events in an attempt to scare her mother literally to death. Leila calls the police for every strange occurrence, but also asks her neighbor, Max, to help solve the puzzling incidents. As the pursuit heats up, Max involves his girlfriend, her teenage daughter, his grandfather, the grandfather’s Irish friend, and even a nearby coven of self-proclaimed witches to catch the perpetrator of the scare tactics—Will Henrietta withstand the pressure?
