Love comes to Willowmere - and so does murder
Bex Merriweather is happy settling into both her newly single life and the job of mastering witchcraft in midlife.
While the rest of Willowmere goes starry-eyed over the return of famed matchmaker Valentina Swann, who's planning to join two hearts in front of cameras, Bex is intent on staying out of it.
She has more than enough to do with running her lending library and cooking up magical concoctions under the critical watch of her opinionated cat familiar, Cosmo.
But when the spell wears off and Valentina's happy ever afters turn into domestic strife, the novice witch suspects more than a few mismatched choices behind the trouble.
When the situation escalates into murder and someone close to Bex is a suspect, she and Cosmo have no other choice than to conjure a miracle and solve the crime.
Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries, magical mayhem, and heroines who believe it's never too late for a new chapter-or a little witchcraft!
Carmen Radtke
Carmen Radtke has spent most of her life with ink on her fingers and a dangerously high pile of books and newspapers by her side. She has worked as a newspaper reporter on two continents and always dreamt of becoming a novelist and screenwriter. When she found herself crouched under her dining table, typing away on a novel between two earthquakes in Christchurch, New Zealand, she realized she was hooked for life. The shaken but stirring novel made it to the longlist of the Mslexia competition, and her next book and first mystery, The Case Of The Missing Bride, was a finalist in the Malice Domestic competition in a year without a winner. Carmen was born in Hamburg, Germany, but had planned on emigrating since she was five years old. She first moved to New Zealand and now lives in York, United Kingdom, with her daughter, cat, and sometimes her seafaring husband comes home.
