Six months after Alice witnessed Trent break into her antique store and die on the floor, business has been strangely calm—aside from the ghosts, her watchful neighbor Dahlia, and David, the reaper who lingers nearby with his hellhound, Scorch.
When a promising estate sale in nearby Gainesville draws Alice and Dahlia in, what should have been a routine inventory run takes a dark turn. Among the antiques are objects tied to forbidden rituals—items capable of pulling the dead back into the living world.
Soon after, another body appears in Alice’s shop.
With the blood moon approaching, Alice and Dahlia uncover the truth: the powerful Gallant family has been quietly continuing a deadly tradition—and Alice may be the final piece they need to complete it.
If they fail to stop the ritual, the dead won’t be the only ones rising… and they may not survive to see the aftermath.
If you enjoy cozy mysteries with a supernatural twist, 'Cursed Mirror' offers a captivating blend of suspense and paranormal intrigue that’s hard to put down.
