Resumen del Editor

When a guest dies in the B&B she helps her aunts run, a young witch must rely on some good old-fashioned investigating to clear her aunt's name in this magical and charming new cozy mystery.

For 400 years, the Warren witches have used their magic to quietly help the citizens of the sleepy New England town of Evenfall thrive. There's never been a problem they couldn't handle. But then Constance Graves - a local known for being argumentative and demanding - dies while staying at the bed and breakfast Brynn Warren maintains with her aunts. At first, it seems like an accident...but it soon becomes clear that there's something more sinister at work, and Aunt Nora is shaping up to be the prime suspect.

There's nothing Brynn wants more than to prove Nora's innocence, and it hurts her to know that even two years ago, that might have been easier. Brynn, after all, is a witch of the dead - a witch who can commune with ghosts. Ghosts never remember much about their deaths, but Constance might remember something about her life that would help crack the case. But Brynn hasn't used her powers since her husband died and isn't even sure she still can. Brynn will just have to hope that her aunts' magic and her own investigative skills will lead her to answers - and maybe back to the gift she once thought herself ready to give up forever.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A fun and compelling mystery.... A welcome addition to the magical cozy genre.” (New York Times best-selling author Juliet Blackwell)

“This is the perfect blend of mystery, magic, and mayhem.” (New York Times best-selling author Sofie Kelly)

“Fans of the paranormal will enjoy the series debut of the Warrens, who go way beyond quirky.” (Kirkus Reviews)

Mystery and magic

I was hooked on the characters of this book from the start. The story is well-crafted and highly entertaining with a succession of twists and turn.

The narrator’s witty style and slightly sarcastic edge pulled me into the story, holding me spellbound - no pun intended! With a colorful cast of characters each with their own distinctive voice, from Brynn’s quirky aunts to the neighbor across the street and the crow named Dog, this audiobook was a joy to listen to.

I liked that these witches weren’t the kind that practice sorcery, but regular people with some extraordinary abilities. Despite these qualities, they are highly relatable individuals, particularly Brynn, who has suffered the tragic loss of her husband and consequently, her powers, yet is determined to find the real killer to defend her aunt. It kept me guessing who the killer was until the very end. I highly recommend this audiobook.

This book is like a warm hug

This book is so cosy and comforting it's like a hot cup of tea on a rainy day. Practical magic meets Gilmore Girls meets murder mystery. The storyline is nothing groundbreaking but it was so comforting to listen to it felt like a hug from an old friend. If you want something fun, magical and heart warming I would recommend you read this.

CUTE and Cozy!!!!

The story wasn’t anything spectacularly groundbreaking, but it was enjoyable and entertaining. Nora was a bit of a b!+ch and it was hard at times to get past that. But I really loved the cozy fall vibes this book had. Definitely going to read more of the Warren Witches!!!

An Outstanding Delight

This book reeled me in with lovably relatable characters and a plot that left me guessing until the very end. In a book where the main character mourns a lost love I usually am left unsatisfied by the resolution for that heart break, however (Without spoiling one of the best book endings I have EVER read) I found myself letting out a sigh of relief at how content and truly happy the ending made me.
If you are looking for a good book this fall or anytime really, curl up with this fantastically cozy mystery.
