Book Synopsis
It’s late October and the Lazy Mermaid Lobster Shack’s business has slowed to a snail’s pace – until a monster lobster claws his way onto the scene. . .

With high season behind them, ballerina on-the-mend Allie Larkin and Aunt Gully are finally lying low when an unexpected guest arrives – a crustacean so big social media dubs him Lobzilla. With everyone showing up to take a peek at the monster in their tank, Allie and Aunt Gully have more on their plate than they can handle.

Meanwhile in exclusive Rabb’s Point, a strange burglary breaches the home of local dignitary Royal Parish. Then, on Halloween night, a student from nearby Graystone College is found murdered in the centuries-old Parish cemetery, rekindling old tales of skeletons in the Parish closet. Someone dear to Allie is implicated in the death but, before she can get to the bottom of the case, another alarm sounds: Lobzilla is missing! And bodies are beginning to pile up. . .
