Hog Wild Dead — Pamela Kopfler

Owning a haunted bed and breakfast is great for Holly Davis's business. But calming the ghosts of her own past could be deadly . . .

To Louisiana locals, the prime sliver of land that butts up to St. Agnes Bayou has become just another tourist trap. Not so for Holly Davis. Her ancestors are still buried on the land and sinking ever deeper into the swamp with each passing hurricane season. Now that old man Dubois's go-to shack for live crawfish is on the market, Holly's ready to hock everything to buy it. As the owner of a haunted B&B, Holly knows for a fact that the spirits won't be settled until she does.

But before Holly can close the deal, Dubois's body disappears into the swamp after a deadly boating accident. Holly and her boyfriend Jack McCann have good reason to suspect Jarvis, one of the rightful heirs to the property. With Dubois's body missing, and a murderer working the bayou, the cemetery and all its mossy ghosts are in limbo. And until Holly finds the killer, not a soul -- including hers -- is going to rest in peace.
