Josie Appleton is reeling from one hex of a midlife crisis.

Blindsided and broke, an unexpected inheritance from the grandmother she never met seems a lifeline. Until Josie discovers the sprawling manor comes with latent magical powers, a sassy talking cat, and… oh yeah… the greenhouse is home to a corpse.

Forced to dig deep to clear her name for a murder she didn't commit, Josie must juggle hot flushes, unruly spells, and a detective who's itching to slap on the cuffs.

Caught between a village of eccentric locals, a spellbindingly handsome caretaker, and a killer desperate to avoid capture, she's in more trouble than a toad in a witch's potion party.

Can Josie conjure up her newfound magic and amateur sleuthing skills to unearth the truth before she becomes the next victim?.
