Martine Cadet waited for many years with baited breath, for a bone marrow transplant. Then she waited with a cane. Then she waited with a walker. Now that she's in a wheelchair, she knows better than to wait. She's reconciled to living as a hermit, confined to her home, with her computer serving as her closest companion, as well as partner in crime - she has become quite a talented hacker!
In life, Lilith Hazelwood was the most powerful witch in Oyster Cove. In death, she is determined to find and punish her murderer. Once enraged by the fact that her body parts had been used for organ transplant, she now sees the beneficiaries as the best means of avenging her own death. If they would only stop being sidetracked by silly diversions like solving human murders and finding love.
The witch's bones provide a miraculous match with Martine's bone marrow. But the changes will far exceed regaining the use of her legs. Lilith's talents for clairvoyance now give Martine a clear window into future events that she's not so sure she wants. Especially when that future involves murder. What will prove to be worse - the frustration of being thought a nutcase or the DANGER of being believed?
Genre: Cozy Mystery
