"The queer witchy fantasy murder mystery series concludes in one last mystery for Mallory, Cornelia, and Diana, as they have to solve their biggest, and most important case of all—who killed Theodore. Perfect for fans of supernatural mysteries and cozy crime by authors such as Ben Aaranovitch, Josiah Bancroft, and Tammie Painter.
It's three days until Samhain, and the Undetectables are going to die. No longer taking magical cases (not that anyone would hire them), they've well and truly given up the ghost.
Meanwhile, Theodore (the relinquished ghost in question) is on the run. Wanted in connection with the Undetectables' last case, he's hiding in the last place anyone would think to look, keeping secrets (badly) and forming unlikely alliances (slightly less badly).
When a copycat killer emerges and history appears to be repeating itself, the Undetectables are called up for one last case. Mallory, Diana, and Cornelia find themselves in a final race against the clock—but this time, the whole of Occulture is at stake."
"A witty, witchy fantasy murder mystery packed with ancient magic and fiendish puzzles. When Cornelia's twin sisters are taken by the Wickermere Reaper, Mallory, Diana and Theodore must race against time to uncover the buried secrets of the Broadwicks before it's too late.
The summer after the events of The Undead Complex, the unthinkable finally happens—Cornelia's money is running out. Estranged from her family, furious at her parents following recent revelations, the Broadwick heir finds herself living on her own resources for the first time.
Meanwhile two crimes are rocking the Apparent community. The Wrackton Digger is stealing bodies from the cemetery, and a new serial killer—the Wickermere Reaper—has emerged. But when the Reaper snatches their next victims—Cornelia's twin sisters—she must return to her family's home, and seat of the Ghoul Council, to conduct the search.
With their resources split, and a ticking clock on the race to save the twins, The Undetectables must do what they do best—solve the strangest, most well-hidden magical mysteries to save the people they love."
"A witty, witchy, fantasy murder mystery packed with ancient magic and fiendish puzzles. Mallory, Diana, Cornelia, and Theodore are hired to solve a murder on a TV shoot by the victim herself.
Five months after they stopped The Whistler, business is booming for the Undetectables. Just not work that requires magical forensic investigators. So when Diana's ex asks them to solve a murder—her own—Diana, Mallory, and Cornelia can't say no.
Going undercover to investigate the set of the TV show, Undead Complex, Diana returns to her life as a propmaker. But even the appearance of a genuine-article Francine Leon dollhouse leaves her feeling pulled down a path of crime-solving she doesn't want to walk forever.
Meanwhile, Theodore's coming apart at the seams—literally—and Mallory is running out of ways to help him. Especially as he seems to be keeping secrets from her.
As the clues—and the bodies—keep piling up, each one making less and less sense, the Undetectables find themselves in a race against time to find out what, exactly, the killer is up to—before the final cut."
"Be gay, solve crime, take naps—A witty and quirky fantasy murder mystery in a folkloric world of witches, faeires, vampires, trolls and ghosts, for fans of Magic for Liars by Sarah Gailey and T. J. Klune's Under the Whispering Door.
A magical serial killer is stalking the Occult town of Wrackton. Hypnotic whistling causes victims to chew their own tongues off, leading to the killer being dubbed the Whistler (original, right?).
Enter the Undetectables, a detective agency run by three witches and a ghost in a cat costume (don't ask). They are hired to investigate the murders, but with their only case so far left unsolved, will they be up to the task?
Mallory, the forensic science expert, is struggling with pain and fatigue from her recently diagnosed fibromyalgia. Cornelia is suddenly stirring all sorts of feelings in Mallory. Diana is hitting up all her ex-girlfriends for information. And not forgetting ghostly Theodore: deceased, dramatic, and also the agency's first—unsolved—murder case.
With bodies stacking up and the case leading them to mysteries at the very heart of magical society, can the Undetectables find the Whistler before they become the killer's next victims?"
