Twenty-seven-year-old witch Minnie Wells has an a-maze-ing ability to land herself in trouble. Minnie's vampire beau Fitz has just opened his country estate's hedge maze to the paying public. They're counting on the proceeds to fund the restoration of Fitz's crumbling manor house, and to keep him from having to return to living in his cunning vampire sire's nest.
But on opening day, a local school teacher is found murdered in the middle of the maze. And to add to the intrigue, Minnie's chased off by the ghostly specter of a Regency woman whose own life was taken in the labyrinth two hundred years ago.
Now, Minnie teams up with a friend who has unexpected abilities, to catch the culprit, appease the spirit, and get the maze back in business.
But when her sleuthing uncovers a strange tie between the two women's deaths, Minnie questions whether the killer is living, or undead, and if the maze will ever be safe again.
Will Minnie catch the culprit and put the angry spirit to rest or will she hit a dead end and become the murderer's next victim?
