Wicked witches. Murder. Mystery.
A cozy mystery with magic, witches, a banshee, and a ghost whisperer. Vega Bloodmire is satisfied with her job as a teacher at the most prestigious magical boarding school for witches. There's nothing she would like more than to be hired back the next school year and take the Merlin-class Celestor exam to prove she is a powerful and skilled witch.
Unfortunately, Vega risks exposing her ghoulish family heritage and taboo cravings for cadavers when she senses mouthwatering necrotized flesh in her classroom. One of her students smells like a walking corpse, which threatens to sabotage Vega's strict no-flesh diet. If she's caught consuming the dead-or the living who smell like death-not only will she lose her job, but she might be tried as a criminal.
Not to mention, she'll also have fewer students, and that isn't going to look good to the administration. As if that isn't enough to deal with, Vega has become a ghost magnet, and they all want her to solve their murders. If she doesn't, they intend to reveal what she is.
Soon Vega realizes more is going on than one student with an illness. Someone-or something-is intentionally harming students. Vega must discover the cause before it's too late and more students are killed.
Can Vega discover what is harming these students before they die-and before she eats anyone?
This book starts with Vega Bloodmire's life before working at Womby's School for Wayward Witches when she was a new and inexperienced teacher at Lady of the Lake School for Girls. GHOULS RULE is the 9th book in the series of mysteries taking place at a magical academy, but these whodunnits are fine to be read in any order.
Clean, cozy, no sex or swearing, PG 13-perfectly fine for teens or grandmas who like mysteries with magic.
