Walking on a Witchy Line
(2024)(Book 19 in the Witches of Holiday Hills Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Carolyn Ridder Aspenson
It was an ordinary day at The Enchanted café, the heart and soul of Holiday Hills, where I hung out with my Burmese cat familiar, Cooper, my best friend, Stella, and Pony, her boxer-staffie mix familiar. But beneath the comforting clink of coffee cups, a foreboding sense of danger loomed, one that Cooper caught onto before the rest of us, and a feeling that proved true when I stumbled upon the lifeless body of Jasper Thorne.
As the keeper of an ancient pact safeguarding our town’s veiled world, Jasper's death was a grim signal that all was not well. With suspects that spanned the spectrum of the supernatural, from a power-hungry witch to a waning shapeshifter, I found myself caught in a web of deceit and dark magic. Each clue pointed one way, then the next, leading me through a labyrinth of enchantment fraught with spells gone awry and alliances tested.
It was in the pages of a poisoned tome and the glimmer of a misleading button that my quest for the truth became a race against time. With magic’s balance teetering and my own powers flickering, I had to unravel the mystery before the fabric of our hidden world unraveled.
But could I?
With every step I took, danger drew closer. As the lines between friend and foe blurred into a murky haze, the thought that I might not be able to mend the fraying edges of our world grew heavier in my mind. Who could I trust?
With Jasper's killer still at large and the ancient pact unraveling, not only was the fate of Holiday Hills hanging in the balance, but so too was my own life. As I delved deeper into the heart of the mystery, I couldn’t shake the chilling realization: perhaps some secrets were too perilous to unearth. Could I restore the balance, or would I become just another shadow lost within the dark folds of Holiday Hills?
