Murder of a Royal Pain (Scumble River, Bk 11)
SierraK avatar reviewed on + 195 more book reviews


Halloween is approaching in Scumble River, and school psychologist Skye Denison has reluctantly volunteered to dress up as a witch in a Haunted House fundraiser to raise money for the school's Promfest. But when the event's overbearing chairwoman, Annette Paine, is found dead during the dress rehearsal for the Promfest, the police aren't sure if Annette's death was murder or an accident. Skye begins to fear that she herself was the intended victim.

This is the eleventh book in the Scumble River series, another fun mystery. However, in my opinion, not as good as most of the others in the series, because there is very little interaction between Skye and her family, friends and boyfriend. Most of the family and friends are out of town for the whole story, and I missed them very much!
