The Pumpkin Head Affair: Volume 1 (A Shelf Barker Mystery Short Story) - Softcover

Shelf Barker, not the world's greatest detective...just the world's detective who gets himself into the greatest number of unusual spots...with hilarious results. Needless to say, Halloween is a special time of year for Shelf and is wife and his ex-wife and his two loyal pets. Also needless to say, Shelf finds himself in a predicament very close to the witching hour, a predicament including a Jack-O'-Lantern that contains a deadly surprise, and a pack of disembodied souls that won't leave HIS house until he grants THEIR wishes. Odd? Topsy-turvy? Sure. But everything in Shelf's world is a bit off-kilter. Join Shelf, his wife, Polly, and his ex-wife, Chloe, as he chisels his way out of a riotous adventure that takes him from Norwich, UK, to the Bronx, NYC, and back again and stands to make him a wealthy man as well. Not bad for a few days' work, right?
