About this ebook

I should’ve known the birthday party for a 113-year-old witch wasn’t going to be all cake and games. Especially with so many other witches around—and that scary magic wand.


I’d been desperate for a vacation from the rain on the California coast. But instead of snow and cocoa in a cozy mountain cabin, I got… a dead body. And the murder weapon wasn’t a candlestick in the billiard room.


Looks like it’s up to me again. My one friend is a Bright witch but not much of a fighter. I used to think I, too, was harmless, but the enchanted marks on my skin tell a different story. My moral code prevents me from killing anyone, but somehow my enemies tend to end up dead.


Trapped in the spellbound mountain retreat, I have to find the killer before anyone else gets killed. Or worse.


I’ve done it before, and I’ll do it again.


Probably.


* * * * *


An enchanted lake house, a magic wand, and a murdered witch...

Life is never boring for ex-demon hunter Alma Bellrose, even if she’d like it to be. Can she use her developing powers to unravel a century of family secrets and save her friend’s life—or will an old curse claim another victim?


A standalone mystery within a series.

A singing Gnome? I think the author has a bit of magic in her too just like her delightful characters. This book was a pleasure to read I enjoyed it so much. I have not read a great many cozies lately so this was a refreshing change for me. I adored the characters Alma is on the case so everything is okay but what about Seth? It looks like in a charming fantasy there has to be something going on the needs a lawyer! I did receive a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.

No good deed goes unpunished as Alma learns when she accompanies an old friend into a den of vipers affectionately known as “family”. So many twists and turns. Every time I thought I had a handle on what was going on around Alma, there’d be a new revelation that would completely change my understanding. This book was filled with suspense, a little bit of silliness, and a whole lot of magical powers. I’m now experiencing the terrible book hangover I get every time I come to the end of a volume in this series, and I can’t wait until there’s another new story and I can do this all over again. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
