Why is change such a challenge?
As winter gives way to spring, Ellen Rosings’s life is in upheaval. She’s about to move out of her suite in the Wisteria Tearoom and into the townhome she will share with her fiancé, Tony—if he’s ever there. All the tearoom’s offices are shifting around like a Chinese puzzle. They need to hire a new manager for the gift shop—and oh, yes, they need another server, too—and what will they do about music for St. Patrick’s Day?
Amid these distractions Ellen is hunting for the pistol ball that killed the tearoom’s resident ghost, Captain Dusenberry. She is also hunting for the perfect wedding venue, which proves to be a struggle. Friends and family suggest places but they all fall short. Should she settle for less than her dreams? Or can she humbly accept help from an unexpected source to make them come true?
This is a novella, a companion story to the Wisteria Tearoom Mysteries series. It is recommended that you read A Valentine for One (book 8) before reading this story.

The death of Gabriel Rhodes on Halloween night sent a shock through the Santa Fe Goth community. Three months later, the fallout continues.
Ellen Rosings is too busy for dead bodies. With a wedding to plan, a move to organize, and business at the Wisteria Tearoom ramping up for Valentine’s Day, the last thing she needs is another corpse to deal with. She is far more interested in solving the murder of Captain Dusenberry over a hundred years ago than in finding fresh victims.
Alas, her plans are doomed to disruption. A body appears, and this time not only is it someone she knew…the evidence points to a member of the tearoom’s staff.

While trying to support her grieving Goth office manager, Ellen ponders the mysterious flashes of light she saw in another part of Santa Fe, wondering if they are related to Captain Dusenberry, the tearoom’s resident ghost. She asks for help from the local spirit-tour guide, Willow Lane, who takes curiosity about the captain’s unsolved murder to a new level, where Ellen finds herself exploring the very meaning of spirit.
Will a séance in the tearoom finally provide the answers to her questions?

Goths reenacting Poe’s “The Masque of the Red Death” on Halloween night…what could possibly go wrong?
Despite her desire to make the Wisteria Tearoom a haven of tranquility, Ellen Rosings can’t rid her parlors of the shadow of death. Fascinated with the tearoom’s resident ghost, her customers flock to spirit-tours-with-tea, and to crown all, the office manager and her Goth friends plan a Halloween masquerade recreating a classic horror story.
Between his heavy workload and his fits of jealousy when Ellen looks at anything male, Detective Tony Aragón can’t offer her much comfort.
Are the flashes of light she’s been seeing some kind of message from the spirit world? Or is it just coincidence when a body turns up where she last saw a gleam?
