Insanity & Incantations

A Corpse Collector Series Paranormal Cozy Mystery

Christmas in Castle Point is usually a snow-dusted affair full of crochet, cocoa, and the occasional corpse. But this year, Carrigan Critt, funeral director and reluctant ghost whisperer, is trading her scarf for sunscreen and heading to the Caribbean for a well-earned beach vacation with besties Trixie and Radleigh.

Their destination? La Sirena Solstice Resort, a luxury escape nestled along the lush coast of Saint Lucia—famous for its volcanic beaches, emerald peaks, and whispered tales of ancient incantations.

But paradise takes a deadly turn when a body is discovered near the resort’s private cove. The locals are thrown into chaos after one look at the corpse—and not because of the death itself, but because of what’s carved into the man’s chest: a cursed sigil known only in the oldest island folklore.

What was meant to be a relaxing tropical holiday becomes a race to uncover the truth behind a forgotten ritual, a mysterious curse, and a past the island tried to bury. As more strange occurrences rattle the resort—from hallucinations and memory loss to violent outbursts—Carrigan must call on her spectral sensitivities and trust a reclusive island priestess to guide her through the web of magic and madness.

But as suspicions rise and resort guests begin to unravel, Carrigan must face a chilling question: Is this island cursed... or was someone desperate enough to make it so?

Insanity & Incantations is a sun-soaked cozy mystery full of holiday spirit, supernatural twists, and the heartfelt humor fans of the Corpse Collector series adore. Will Carrigan stop the chaos before it spreads—or will this Christmas getaway turn into her final resting place?
