Ghost in the Coffee Machine — Charity Tahmaseb

Katy and her grandmother have always used coffee to catch ghosts. It pays the bills and keeps them in high-end beans. But after Katy's grandmother dies, it's as if she's taken all the ghosts with her.

Until Katy discovers there's a rival ghost hunter in town, one who uses tea--of all things--and one who has stolen all her clients. But when an epic infestation threatens, Katy can't help but get involved. It will take all her wits--and some excellent Kona blend--to fight the ghost in the coffee machine.

Ghost in the Coffee Machine is a short story of approximately 4,000 words. The story was first published in Coffee: 14 Caffeinated Tales of the Fantastic.
