With her teenaged daughter’s birthday on the horizon and the town’s autumn festival in full swing, Emerald has her hands full with party preparations and teashop specials. But a request from her friend Jimbo has her using her abilities to look into the disappearance of his friend. In the woods surrounding the Klickavail Valley enclave, Emerald senses a strange energy manifesting itself-before … literally stumbling across the body of Jimbo’s friend. While the police are willing to blame the death on a cougar attack, Emerald knows there’s something else wandering the forest-something that resembles the Klakatat monster of legend, but may actually be a monster of a more human kind.

I really enjoyed this book
Didn’t like it
Very good read. Appreciate well written books such as this.
This book was so good. I really enjoyed it, my second book by her, she is very good.
I shall continue reading, her books.
This series started my love of Yasmine Galenorn
Fun and entertaining.
Emerald, owner of the Chintz and China Tea Shop, is also a white witch. She was trained by her grandmother to read the tarot, cast spells, and enter the astral plain and the spirit world. Her two children, Miranda and Kip, are sort of aware of Emerald’s abilities, but friends Anna Murray and Harlow are the two who really support her. In this novel, a Sasquatch-type character has appeared in the mountains where two biker guys have been murdered. Interesting characters such as new reporter Cathe, hopeful spiritualist George, biker Jimbo, and boyfriend Joe round take part in the action of this delightful book.
I enjoyed the story but wished I had read previous stories on the same set.
I love mysteries, and I really enjoyed this book. The element of the main character being able to the communicate with the “other” world added to it. I’ve gotten the first two books.
The addition of mysticism, tarot reading and hauntings makes this series so readable. I like the continued story line of Emerald and her family and friends that links each Chintz n China book to the next. I’m on book 4 now and expect to finish the entire series.
I usually like her books but this one I got bored with all the cave descriptions.
Interesting. Characters
It was wonderful!
Great! Kept me reading way past my normal bed time.
While not a big fan of sci fi and paranormal stories, the synopsis of this book intrigued me and I’m so very glad it did – I’d have missed a very enjoyable and thought provoking read. This story is nicely written with characters you can picture, it is set in an amazing area of the NW US and it’s obvious the author knows the country. The supernatural events were so beautifully introduced that i was mesmerized. Can’t wait to read more Yasmine Galenorn – shevs been added to my favorite autbors list!
The characters made this a fun read.
Needed better editing a lot of gramer errors. The storyline was entertaining and I enjoyed the physic aspect. This was an entertaining read will definitely read more of this author.
There is so much to like about this book.
