Secrets & Cellars: A Cozy Ghost Mystery (The Hollow's End Mysteries Book 8) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798248349692)

Some doors are locked for a reason. Especially the ones hiding in the sub-basement.

Maya Rao thought she knew everything about The Resting Place. She knew which floorboards creaked, which shelves were haunted, and exactly how much tuna it took to bribe her cat, Barnaby. But she didn't know about the door hidden behind the History section.

When a cryptic letter from her late Great-Aunt Sheila reveals a secret "Archive" beneath the bookstore, Maya and her barista sidekick, Elias, go exploring. What they find isn't just extra storage. It's a magical containment facility for stories that were too dangerous to be read.

And the containment is failing.

Now, fictional characters are leaking into Hollow's End. A swooning Regency Duke is dueling the mailman. A grit-toothed Noir Detective is narrating Maya's life. And a Sci-Fi Space Captain is trying to vaporize the Mayor. But the chaos is just a distraction.

Something darker is waking up behind the Red Door. The Editor. An ancient spirit that feeds on happiness and wants to rewrite reality into a tragedy.

To save her town, Maya must:

• Trap a runaway romance hero before he unbuttons his shirt any further.


• Navigate a literal "Plot Hole" where gravity doesn't exist.


• Defeat a monster using the only weapon it fears: terrible writing.

Secrets & Cellars is the eighth book in the Hollow's End Mysteries. If you like magical libraries, literary humor, and cats who judge your reading choices, you'll love this cozy paranormal adventure.

Open the book. Just be careful which door you open next.
