A Hex of Cold Tea

In the fog-wrapped village of Moonridge Hollow, memory is a dangerous brew.

When beloved tea-maker Agnes Fairwell collapses at the Spring Fair after sipping her own shimmering blue blend, villagers whisper of poison, but herbalist Penelope Hawthorne tastes something far stranger: magic gone rancid. Drawn into a mystery steeped in both grief and enchantment, Penelope must navigate a town that no longer trusts her, an inspector who suspects her, and the lingering ghost of a love that refused to die.

Her investigation leads to a rival tea merchant with too-perfect charm, a portrait that breathes when no one watches, and a secret that binds the living to their own forgotten pasts. Every cup hides a story, and some stories refuse to stay buried.

As storm clouds gather over the Hollow, Penelope uncovers a forbidden blend of memory and oblivion, an Umbrael spell designed to erase betrayal itself. To save what remains of the town, she must choose between mercy and remembrance… before history brews itself again.

A lush, gothic mystery of tea, memory, and love that refuses to die, The Memory Tea blends the cozy charm of Practical Magic with the eerie intimacy of The Thirteenth Tale, perfect for readers who like their witchcraft delicate, their ghosts regretful, and their heroines unwilling to forget.
