Eve Coffin is released from jail to go home again...and there's something in Coffin Hill awaiting her with open arms. Ghosts are abroad in the town, and one in particular has her sights set on Eve - and on a bloody chain of events the Coffin family set in motion almost three hundred years ago. When the bones of a young girl are found after decades buried in the Coffin Hill woods, Eve and Officer Wilcox attempt to solve the cold case, discovering that the ghosts, the bones and the darkest secrets of Coffin Hill are all connected...and all pose a grave danger to Eve and her loved ones. COFFIN HILL VOL. 3 collects issues #14-20.

Definitely a satisfying conclusion to this series. I really fell back into the creepy creepy story surrounding the coffin witch. This series is not for those affected by gore, but I really enjoyed the visceral nature of the cels. And Eve is the best flawed protagonist. Great setup and payoff.
