A future that cannot be escaped, a tragic death, and a race to uncover the truth... I love pretty dresses, planning my upcoming marriage to my delectable fiancé, and figuring out how I'll become a famous dancer. Corpses do not feature in those plans. Unfortunately, my parents, the corpses, and my grave magic have other ideas! I've inherited a power I never wanted, but it wants me. And when my friend, and servant, is murdered in my home and her corpse returns with a plea for justice, I cannot ignore my power. How will I balance my dreams with my family's harsh expectations of me becoming a cemetery guardian, my fiancé's desire for me to abandon the corpses forever, and the demands of the Magic Council who are investigating (very poorly) my dear friend's murder? I will not give up on my passions, but how can I make the corpses and my parents understand that? *** This is Silvaria Digby's origin story. Set in a quaintly historical past in a world not far from the Witch Haven you know and love, where balls, bonnets, and carriages are all the rage. Enjoy spending time with our powerful future cemetery guardian as she tackles difficult home life, shambling bodies, and a murder that's too close to home.
Author
K.E. O’Connor is the author of the Witch Haven mystery series, the Crypt Witch cozy mysteries, the Lorna Shadow ghost mysteries, the Holly Holmes baking mysteries, the Zee Town paranormal cozy series, and the Old Sarum mystery series, along with other titles available if you cast the right spell. She can imagine dragons, taste cookies when they aren’t even there, and hear the crack of a witch’s broom at a hundred paces. K.E. (the K stands for Karen) lives in the United Kingdom (it isn’t very united, but that’s a mystery for another time) among the mystical stones and fairy creatures of Somerset. She graduated from the Universities of Southampton and Reading, where she received degrees in Archaeology and Cognitive Evolution (both highly entertaining to take part in, but with the career options of a ground witch’s toe bone.) If you’re of the curious persuasion and want to know more, visit her website at www.keoconnor.com for enlightening knowledge on all things cozy mystery, book news, and a peek into the magical world of a writer who believes animals talk and magic is just a finger click away.

There may be tea and cookies waiting, or there may be giants – it depends on her mood.
