Watchful Wisteria

Wisteria Witches Mysteries, Book 4

De: Angela Pepper

Narrado por: Tiffany Williams

Zara Riddle has finally found work-life-magic balance when someone from her past arrives to destroy everything.

Rhys Quarry wasn't much of a father to Zara. He swears everything's different now, but some people never change. Soon he's teaching his con man ways to his granddaughter. If only he could teach her something useful.

When a member of the magical community goes missing, Zara joins the search. When she and Zinnia find a trio of ghosts, the search becomes a murder investigation. The local police say they'll solve the case, but how can they? Their top detective is distracted, wandering around town feeding the wildlife and talking about conspiracies.

Cracking this case will mean busting out some new spells - the dangerous kind that a witch can't cast on her own. The three Riddles team up as they move into uncharted territory. Unfortunately for them, danger isn't far behind.

Zara and her family face their biggest foe yet. To survive, they'll have to access magic they've never used before. When the confrontation turns deadly, no one will be walking away untouched.

Change is in the air, and it's not going to be pretty.

Watchful Wisteria is book four in the hit cozy mysteries series Wisteria Witches Mysteries by Angela Pepper.

Looking forward to #5

Fun book to read, always a turn in the plot to keep you interested in the book

Great Addition to Series!

Watchful Wisteria by Angela Pepper is part of a series and a standalone listen. I loved how this book showed Zara as a wonderful mother. There are some very unexpected twists in this story. The imagery is vivid in this book and the narration is perfect. Tiffany Williams gives the various characters distinguishable voices, and injects the right emotions. I could envision so much of this book, especially the venus flytrap type plant and what ensued. The shifter element to this story was really great too, and added depth. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review. I will definitely listen to more books by this talented author and narrator.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
The utterly delightful Wisteria Witch Mysteries continues with our favorite small town redheaded magical librarian. The story picks up right where the last one left off with the introduction of an important character. This novel focuses on Zara’s family’s past including her parents. It shed a new light on her relationship with her aunt ad daughter. Zoey has a big moment and I look forward to see how it impacts her character and role in the series going forward.
The characters remain loveable and witty. We learn more about another townperson. It seems nearly every character in the town has a mysterious past or secret that can only be unraveled through a supernatural adventure – and I could not love it more. My only minor quibble in this one was a lack of Chet but we still got some great scenes with Corvin and a certain steely detective.
I am really enjoying my time in Wisteria. If you checked out the first three then keep plunging ahead. It’s only getting better. Angela Pepper is consistently writing light, fun, engaging characters and mysteries with bizarrely grandiose climaxes that hit all the right buttons. Looking forward to more.
The narrator handled more voices and accents this time around and did so with great skill. She has a knack for it. I could listen to her tell stories about playing mini golf or library research forever.
Regarding the final scene: book 5 can’t get here soon enough.

Open mouth!

mysteries galore ! Totally blowing my mind . great story lines and the characters are fun and likable .
