For Franki Amato, life in New Orleans is anything but "The Big Easy." When she met handsome bank executive Bradley Hartmann, she knew she'd finally found a man she could trust. But she can't say the same for his sexy new secretary, who is about as trustworthy as Mata Hari and every bit as seductive. Meanwhile, Franki's best friend and employer, Veronica Maggio, has named her the lead investigator in the murder of a gorgeous cosmetics CEO who was found lying dead in the master bedroom of a historic plantation home.

Now the pressure is on Franki to figure out what a bottle of pink lip gloss and the legend of a pink diamond have to do with the bizarre killing. The problem is that the plantation is notorious for being haunted, and Franki is less than enthusiastic about the prospect of meeting a ghost. Adding to her stress, her Sicilian grandma is up to her usual meddling antics — this time planning Franki's engagement to Bradley before he's even considered popping the question. As Bradley grows distant and plantation employees begin dropping like Southern belles during a sweltering summer, Franki turns to a psychic with a phobia of ghosts to solve the mysterious murders and her own relationship fears.

The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency often helps people find things they have lost. But they have never had to help a client find herself — until now …

A kindhearted brother and sister have taken in a woman known only as "Mrs." — a woman with no memory of her name or of how she came to Botswana. And so it's up to Precious Ramotswe and her new co-director, Grace Makutsi, to discover the woman's identity.

Meanwhile, motherhood proves to be no obstacle to Mma Makutsi's professional success. As she settles into her role as partner at the agency, she also launches a new enterprise of her own: the Handsome Man's De Luxe Café, a restaurant for Gaborone's most fashionable diners. But even Miss 97 Per Cent isn't fully prepared for the temperamental chefs, drunken waiters, and other challenges that come with running one's own business. Help may come from an unexpected source, if only Mma Makutsi can swallow her pride and ask.

And next door to the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni is all too familiar with the difficult decisions of business owners. He is finally forced to make a tough choice, one that will bring major changes to both Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors and the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency — and that will require all of Mma Ramotswe's finesse and patience to sort out.

With sympathy and indefatigable good humor, Mma Ramotswe and her friends see one another through these major changes and discover along the way what true friendship really means.

Unfortunately, it seems that this holiday, Donald might only be interested in Aunt Clara for her money. Ryan and Maggie research his background and find he's had several wives who met with unfortunate "accidents" that left him wealthier.

Omnimystery News: Guest Post by Lauren Carr
with Lauren Carr

Lauren Carr is always such a delightful guest to host here on Omnimystery News, and when we asked if she might be willing to write something for us to coincide with Halloween, she very graciously agreed.

She thought the setting for her Mac Faraday mystery The Murders at Astaire Castle (Acorn Book Services; July 2013 trade paperback and ebook formats) would be an ideal backdrop to her guest post for us today, which she titles, "What Is It About Halloween That Makes Us Crazy?"

My family has a Halloween tradition. Of course, it includes watching It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. I think every family has that tradition. It's right up there with Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown.

I've had to have seen the Great Pumpkin children's special at least forty-five times (that's how long ago it premiered on CBS) and still, at that moment when the moon is full and that dark figure rises up out of the pumpkin patch, I can feel my heart beating away with fright-filled anticipation.

Linus faints.

The eerie figure turns out to be a beagle, who has no candy to give to all the faithful boys and girls.

Sally demands restitution for missing out on her Halloween candy.

Believe me. This is a scary time of year. I think it has to do with the chilling fingers that seem to reach out of the dark windy weather to prick our skin to make goose bumps. The dying trees and falling leaves contribute to the eerie scene to turn our mood in the direction of spooky.

Even more bizarre is our yearning to be scared.

We aren't so anxious to get the stuffing scared out of us during the summer. Can you imagine sunning yourself on the beach when a wolf man strolls up to you from the water's edge to breathe down on you? Most likely, you won't be thrilled when you yell, "Stop blocking my sun, Fur-Face!"

It has something to do with the setting.

Wait two months.

When the weather turns cold, the leaves drop from the trees, the wind kicks up, and the moon turns full — you won't only be looking out for the wolf man or vampire or Great Pumpkin — you're hoping for one. If you're lucky, all of them to come give your heart a good jump start.

Some of us aren't quite so excited about being scared or maybe we scare ourselves too much.

Every year, our church has a trunk or treat, in which our members will decorate their vehicles and line them up on the soccer field for the children to gather their Halloween candy. Some of the volunteers will dress up in costume.

Last year, I was dressed up like a farmer in overalls. My husband, Jack, went as himself. He's much too distinguished to dress up in costume. As always, his gray beard was nicely trimmed and he was clad in his winter coat and gloves to keep him warm on that cold autumn night.

We had decorated the back of our SUV with fake giant spiders and spider webs. At the end of the evening, half of the vehicles had left as the time wore on and the children dwindled down to only a few stragglers or late comers.

Then, it was time to go home.

Most of the outdoor lights shut off. The only light left to illuminate the field was that cast by the headlights of the few remaining vehicles.

Leaving Jack alone, I had left the back of the SUV to go talk to some friends on the other side of the field when I saw a young mother and a little girl dressed up as Little Red Riding Hood, complete with a cape hurrying along the line of vehicles left to get whatever candy was left.

"Jack," I called back to our SUV, "we got one more."

A moment later, there was a high pitched scream. Her red cape flapping behind her, Little Red Riding Hood went flying across the field — screaming the whole way.

Her mother was right behind her. "I told you that some of them would be scary!"

Not far behind them, my husband was running with his arms outstretched offering the bowl of candy. "Wait, little girl! Don't you want some candy?"

Apparently, Jack was in the front of the SUV when he heard me call. As the girl approached the back of the vehicle, he came out of the shadows. With his beard and dark coat, she thought he was the …

(Wait for it!)

Big Bad Wolf!

Now poor Jack is banned from Trunk or Treat. He's still waiting to get mad about it.

Admittedly, I am not a paranormal fan. I may be the only reader in America who has not read a vampire romance. Yet, when October rolls around, I'm craving a little something extra in the whodunits I devour. That was why I wrote The Murders at Astaire Castle, a mystery with a touch of paranormal.

In this Mac Faraday mystery, Spencer's police chief, David O'Callaghan, learns the hard way to never tell Mac to stay away from the south end of Spencer's mountaintop — even though he owns the property. It doesn't take long for Mac to find out what lies on the other side of the stone wall and locked gate, on which hangs a sign warning visitors to Keep Out!

Topping the list of the ten most haunted places in America, Astaire Castle is associated with two suicides, three mysterious disappearances, and four murders since it was built almost a century ago — and Mac Faraday owns it!

In spite of David's warning, Mac can't resist unlocking the gate to see the castle that supposedly hasn't seen a living soul since his late mother had ordered it closed up after the double homicide and disappearance of Damian Wagner, a world-famous master of horror novels.

What starts out as a quick tour of a dusty old castle turns into another Mac Faraday adventure when Astaire Castle becomes the scene of even more murders. Mac is going to need to put all of his investigative talents to work to sort out this case that involves the strangest characters he has run into yet — including a wolf man.

No, we're not talking about Gnarly … or my husband.

More on today's free book, below.

Master Sergeant Lauren Harper, an African-American career soldier, always has her eye on the mission, especially when on a deployment to a war-torn country like Bosnia. While Harper is dedicated to her mission, she's not a super combat operative trained to kill people with her bare hands. She is a smart, but human military professional caught in an impossible situation.

When Specialist Virginia Delray, a soldier under Harper's authority, is murdered, military investigators need a speedy resolution. Delray is Harper's roommate and the young southern girl's incompetence had sparked Harper's temper more than once for everyone to witness. For the investigators, the shortest route to closing the case could lead directly to Harper.

When investigators find evidence of an attraction between Harper and her commanding officer, Colonel Neil McCallen — an attraction the married man returns but has never acted on — covering up an illicit affair becomes the motive the investigators searched for.

Harper's freedom hinges on the answer to one question: If she didn't kill Delray, who did?

With help from British Special Operations soldier, Sergeant Major Harry Fogg, Harper learns Delray's murder is only one piece in a much larger conspiracy. The details come into focus, first on life at a remote NATO base, then on misery in the aftermath of war, and finally on the brutal truth.

Indiana, 1818. Moonlight falls through the dense woods that surround a one-room cabin, where a nine-year-old Abraham Lincoln kneels at his suffering mother's bedside. She's been stricken with something the old-timers call "Milk Sickness."

"My baby boy … " she whispers before dying.

Only later will the grieving Abe learn that his mother's fatal affliction was actually the work of a vampire.

When the truth becomes known to young Lincoln, he writes in his journal, "henceforth my life shall be one of rigorous study and devotion. I shall become a master of mind and body.

Annie Darling, owner of the Death on Demand mystery bookstore, is understandably upset. It isn't like her p.i. husband Max to abruptly disappear — and homicide is definitely not his style. But when his car is found abandoned on a remote road with a brutally slain, once-beautiful young woman nearby and the murder weapon stashed in the trunk, Annie's worst fears seem justified.

The police have Max all but tried and convicted — except for Chief Billy Cameron, whose unshakable belief in his friend's innocence prompts his removal from the case. And as a media circus descends on tiny Broward's Rock, Annie will have to place her own life in jeopardy to clear her husband's name. But time is running out — and she has only one slim chance to unmask a killer who just may have committed the perfect crime.
