A rookie psychic and her chatty canine sidekick set out to solve a hometown crime.

Janelle Brighton is a reluctant psychic still trying to find her true calling. So far, her main claim to fame is bringing a spectral dachshund back to life. It’s a unique gift that probably won’t take her far in her hometown of Wyldwood Springs, where magical crime abounds.

After years on the run, however, she’s determined to put the past behind her and start over. An old family feud is still going strong and her enemies consider her a threat. In Janelle’s humble opinion, her magical skills are highly overrated.

Mr. Bixby begs to differ. The chatty, cocky dachshund believed in Janelle enough to cross from the dead to the living and join her on a special quest. First, she’ll need to find her estranged and missing mother and cure their family ghost of amnesia. On top of all that, there’s a dead body behind her quaint but haunted jewelry store… and guess who’s getting framed?

Surviving this homecoming is going to take persistence, ingenuity and a great sense of humor.

A psychic with a quirky gift. A quaint haunted store. And a sassy dog who solves murders.

Janelle Brighton is adapting quickly to life in her hometown of Wyldwood Springs. Her new friends are helping her launch a jewelry store, and the visiting police chief she admires is sticking around.

When a canine specter with a little extra arrives in her new store, however, it stirs up a whirlwind of trouble. The feisty furball’s visit coincides with an unexpected death on Main Street that leaves Janelle’s best friend on the hook for murder.

The ghost without a tail has a very special tale he's not telling. Luckily, Mr. Bixby—a sassy and previously-deceased dachshund—and Janelle both like a challenge. To solve the crime, they’ll need to crack a complicated canine code that leads down a perilous path into her family’s past.

No one said rescuing ghost dogs would be easy… but there’s never a dull moment.

A psychic in training. A haunted café. And a chatty canine companion in crime-solving.

Janelle Brighton is starting to love Wyldwood Springs. Some local citizens would rather see her leave town—or the planet—but she’s there to stay. Her store, Whimsy, is everything she hoped and the “family” of friends she craved is growing. There’s even hope for a date with the handsome chief of police.

When a new ghost dog arrives in town at the same time someone dies, however, life gets complicated fast. Her nemesis, Oscar Knight, may well be behind the murder, but why is his wife suddenly so chummy? On top of that, Janelle has come down with a dangerous malady courtesy of the Brighton matriarch.

It’s enough to rattle any novice psychic, but Mr. Bixby, Janelle’s sassy canine sidekick, is ready for anything Wyldwood throws at them, whether it’s murder or magical hiccups.

A few bungled spells are bad enough, but uncontrollable magical hiccups? Disastrous!

Rookie witch Janelle Brighton thought solving a few crimes in Wyldwood Springs would score points in high places, but it’s her magical malady that’s caught the mayor’s eye. The town leader is so worried she's assigned a mentor to watch over Janelle and her friends.

Feisty familiar Mr. Bixby is outraged. The chatty dachshund didn’t cross back from the dead to be stuck on a leash like a regular dog.

Meanwhile, a librarian is reporting suspicious activity in the stacks. If it’s the work of a new ghost dog, trouble will surely follow.

First thing on Janelle’s agenda is finding a cure for her hiccups. Then, she’ll need to outwit her powerful mentor and fulfill her destiny of rescuing another spectral dog in need.

With hounds, humor, and homicide, will this be an adventure for the books… or the challenge that breaks the ambitious crew?
