Calm Before the Witch Storm
(2019)(The first book in the Calamity Corners Witch Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Constance Barker
When Nann (that's with 2 nn's please) moves to her late Aunt Nancy's home in Calamity Corners, she wonders why there's a little pig running amok with a toilet seat in its mouth. But that's the least of her worries. She has a bookstore to open.
Cemetery Center doesn't sound like an up and coming place to open a new business, but the square footage is huge and the rent is right. Her shop neighbor Zinnia owns the art gallery next door. But Zinnia has a secret, one that occurs on the full moon. Werewolf? Not exactly.
When Nann searches for a vehicle to buy, she's sent to the only car repair shop in town. However, Tink, the shop mechanic, has Spock ears. Okay....And what's going on on the third floor of her bookstore building? Men get together and drink beer around a coffin. Someone mentioned the VHS. Vampire Hunter Society? Van Helsing Society? This town is getting weirder by the minute.
But that's just the way Nann likes it. She's a Druid witch, just like her late Aunt Nancy. She's come to take over her aunt's home and move the family bookstore business. Pokey the Pig is Aunt Nancy's familiar and by lineage becomes Nann's familiar. She communicates through the radio, and depending on what station you're on, Nann either gets a red-eyed feisty porker or 'I just want to be held' piggy.
So when boys begin to go missing in neighboring towns, Nann is convinced it's magic gone haywire. Could it be the giant pointy eared mechanic named Tink has taken to kidnapping, or does her neighbor shifter Zinnia have an appetite for humans? Or could whatever is in the coffin on the third floor have a hand in it? The gang is also looking at Nann....they all remember Hansel & Gretel. Nann must find Aunt Nancy's witch books so she can put a stop to the disappearances, but she's in for more than she bargained for when forces come at her from different directions.
