When a drowning turns out to be a poisoning and a hellhound turns out to be a mortal, you know there's trouble ahead... I survived the screaming skull, just. But now I have another case getting in the way of finding my missing sister. If only people would leave me alone... but I never let my friends down. Gaian Grimm died from a misfiring spell. At least, that's what it initially looks like. Micky Cox is the prime suspect, but then his body is dragged from Serpent Lake, and his accomplice is found on his knees with a fireball about to snuff him out. What should be a simple investigation turns into a coiled curl of confusion. Why do people keep dying? Is there a connection? And who are the masked magic users who keep following me? Throw in a poisoned pie, a long-hidden secret that'll blow apart the magic community, and the issues with my 'mortal' hellhound, and I doubt I'll get much sleep any time soon. *** Welcome back to the magical world of Witch Haven for your next adventure with Storm Winter, our jaded witch. She’s determined to never give up looking for her missing sister, even if a poisoned pie and a brush with powerful royals get in her way! Enjoy this witch paranormal cozy mystery, featuring a troubled magic-user, a sharp-tongued hellhound with an inability to cuss, a group of amazing friends, and a twisty mystery that’ll have you wondering who did it until the very end.

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.)
