Curl
Up with Two Mini-Mysteries This Holiday Season
By Kelli A. Wilkins
Hi everyone!
If you’re looking for a quick read
this holiday season, why not catch up on two of my mini-mysteries? They’re
perfect for a lunchtime break or a short escape from the holiday hustle.
Although both stories share a similar
theme (buying things at a flea market or an estate sale can change your life),
they’re very different in tone.
First up is More Than I Bargained For.
This mini-mystery
blends offbeat humor with the paranormal. You never know what you’ll
find at an estate sale…
More
Than I Bargained For - A Paranormal Mini-Mystery
Katie doesn’t like going to estate sales. Why? Because she sees dead people.
When Katie
reluctantly attends an estate sale with her friend Diane, she gets more than
she bargained for. The deceased former owner of the house, Grace, realizes that
Katie can communicate with her, and she has a lot to say.
As Katie pretends to
shop, Grace tells her the story of how she was murdered—and reveals that her
killer is still in the house.
It’s up to Katie to
uncover the murder weapon and get it to the police… before time runs out.

If you like your
mysteries a bit darker, don’t miss Silent Sentinel. This mini-thriller
blends a crime story with the unusual. Pay attention to what you buy the next
time you’re at a flea market…
Silent Sentinel - A Mini-Thriller
One afternoon, Valerie visits a flea market and meets a peculiar man who tries to sell her an ancient statue of Anubis—the Egyptian god of the dead. Despite her protests, the man insists that she must have the statue. Valerie gives in and brings her new “guardian” home.
Later that night,
Valerie awakens to discover an intruder has broken into her house. She’s forced
to fight for her life and relies on Anubis to save her.
When the police
investigate, they make a shocking discovery about her attacker and his motive.
Only then does Valerie realize how lucky she was— the statue was the last thing
she wanted, but exactly what she needed.
