For Whom the Spell Tolls

Something wicked this way comes in the laugh-out-loud, spooky crime mystery perfect for fans of Bella Mackie, Over My Dead Body and You'd Look Better as a Ghost
________________________ A coven of witches is the last thing you'd expect to find in a genteel, rural hamlet. But these modern-day witches are more into horoscopes and spells-for-sale than toil and trouble - except for their ongoing feud with a prominent historian who claims the witch trials were a hoax. When the historian turns up dead and the witches become the prime suspects, medium-cum-detective Claire wants to help solve the mystery and clear their names. But in this small village, secrets and spirits abound. Can Claire separate the black magic from white lies?
