Reaper Witch #7
The Ghost is Clear
Welcome to Hawkwood Hollow, where the dead outnumber the living.
Maura has faced her fair share of monsters since moving to the haunted town of Hawkwood Hollow. When a series of disappearances in the area suggests a more sinister cause than a simple kidnapping, she assumes she can handle it alone.
The group of professional monster hunters who’ve come to stay at the inn say otherwise.
Maura’s past experience says the Wardens aren’t to be trusted, but with her own skills limited and the law enforcement standing in her way at every turn, she’s forced to accept a reluctant alliance with the newcomers… in particular, with Perry, a witch who may be hiding as many secrets as Maura herself is.
Can Maura and the squad of monster hunters deal with their newest adversary? Or will Maura herself end up being hunted instead?

A vampire, werewolf and a witch walk into a bar... and meet a reaper!
I'm back in Hawkwood Hollow and it's so good to be back. This time Maura has new friends in the form of wardens that are monster hunting... for ghouls! and how this mystery will tie into the bigger mystery of the missing coven leader will keep you guessing.
I picked this series up because I really enjoyed the Library Witch mysteries and I was all caught up on that series. However, this series is fast becoming a favourite! It features reaper witch, Maura, and her ghost brother and the adventures they get up to are legendary!!
I really liked this one and it's easy to see that it is all building up the bigger mystery about the coven leader, and I can't wait for the next one. I will say read these in order! It's so worth it, and the audio is fantastic.

Ghoulishly Awesome
The town has been overrun with ghouls, but where are they coming from? The police department is incompetent as usual, thanks to Petra, and it’s up to Maura to save the town. Don’t worry: she gets help with a special guest appearance from Tam and the gang. This book just screams for a throw down between Maura and Petra. Come on Elle, don’t let us down: it’s time for the fur to fly! Another thrilling cozy mystery from Elle Adams that you won’t want to miss!

Excellent!
This book brought in new characters, which I hope to see more of. The confirmation of more evil lurking, possibly in other places of power is revealed. Look forward to the story continuing.

Wonderful series
I love that this continues an already established story line.
I will be happy when some folks in it finally get their just desserts.

I made the mistake of reading this book when I decided the last book was the end for me. What a waste of time. Will the Mina story ever end? It has for me.

Good story!!
This was a very good, page-turning story! It was filled with witches and magic, werewolves and vampires, ghosts and monsters.
