Toil & Trouble
(2019)(The fifth book in the Magic Island Paranormal Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Emery Belle
Book your ticket to Magic Island, where the potions are brewed fresh daily, the beaches are perfect for creature-watching, and the fangs and fur are on full display.
Long-buried secrets about the family she's never known have come to light, leaving novice witch Wren Winters reeling. Trying to keep herself from having a nervous breakdown is no easy task, especially when she also has to contend with a duct-taped wand, a boyfriend with more than one skeleton in his closet, a close friend who's chosen the strangest of bedfellows... and a powerful wizard who refuses to admit to the truth.
When an innocent gnome is thrown in jail for a murder he didn't commit, Wren is grateful for the distraction, and immediately throws herself head-first into the investigation. Between attending a self-defense class for small magical creatures, going on a nighttime broomstick tour of the island, and visiting a gloomy forest where rogue werewolves roam, she has plenty to keep her occupied. But as she closes in on the killer, Wren is forced to face an uncomfortable truth.
Sometimes things - and people - are not what they appear to be.
Author's Note: Each book includes a self-contained mystery, but there are longer, ongoing subplots that continue throughout the series.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
