Welcome back to the Skeleton Crew. Keep your knitting needles sharp and have a strong brew in hand for their next adventure.
Life for gender-fluid, autistic vampire Hyde Snodgrass has never been better. Her cosy village bookshop is thriving as is their new relationship with witch and taco bus owner, Teresa Vega. Autumn is in full magical tilt in their corner of the Scottish Highlands.
Everything is beautifully perfect right up until a tainted meal ends with Hyde sick and someone dead.
The police immediately suspect the restaurant owners. Hyde and Teresa find themselves drawn into yet another investigation, trying to save their friends from arrest and themselves from a murderer. The situation becomes even more complex when family feuds become tangled in the midst.
Can they find the killer?
Or will everything Hyde loves go up in flames?

“Hello.” Teresa’s smile widened. She stepped over and reached up to adjust Hyde’s cap before leaning in for a kiss. “Ready for an Italian feast?”
“I… yes,” Hyde stammered. They held up the carefully wrapped book. “And I’ve got their book.”
“Excellent. Amalia promised to make her stracotto alla fiorentina. I love a good pot roast, and theirs is always beautifully tender. It’s the perfect autumnal stew.” Teresa brushed her hand against Hyde’s before interlacing their fingers. “How was your day?”
Hyde shrugged. They never enjoyed small talk, even from Teresa. “Day-like.”
“How about I ask a better question?” Teresa leaned into them a little. Her smile was genuine and sweet, with no sign of mocking in her tone. “Did the furred menaces enjoy the treat I sent over for breakfast?”
Hyde smiled at their girlfriend. “They did.”
Girlfriend. We’re dating. We’ve had a date. Dates, even. Is she my girlfriend?
“Are you my girlfriend?” Hyde blurted the question, then closed their eyes and groaned. “I didn’t mean to say that out loud.”
“I am. I’m sure some people would think it far too fast to claim titles of any sort in our relationship, but sod them. We’ve known each other for years. I figure we’ve slowly been dating without admitting it for much of that time.” Teresa rubbed her thumb across Hyde’s hand soothingly. “And you’re my chubby ginger bookshop owner who I adore to pieces.”
“Not literally. I like my pieces put together.” Hyde loved the almost musical lilt to Teresa’s laugh.
