A Veiled Deception
Annette Blair

Madeira, Maddie, Cutler, vintage clothing lover, and New York fashion designer, comes home to help plan her sister's wedding. At the engagement party, the "Jezebel" trying to steal Sherry's fiance is found strangled with a bridal veil, making Sherry the prime suspect. Besides seeking the real killer, Maddie alters Sherry's vintage wedding gown, worn by generations of the groom's family, and something odd happens. The gown gives Maddie visions, clues to the past . . . and the murder?

Maddie learns she's psychometric, a psychic gift she inherited from her late mother, who was a broom-carrying witch, it turns out. What other gifts did she inherit? When not sleuthing, Maddie acquires the old Underhill Funeral Chapel Carriage House, including Dante Underhill, a chatty debonair ghost in tux and top hat, who can't seem to leave the building. Watch out Mystic, Connecticut! Here comes Vintage Magic, a shop for vintage couture and designer originals, featuring a psychic sleuth, a hunk of a ghost, and a splash of magic thrown in for "charm."
