Spells, Scones and Suspects: a Paranormal Cozy Mystery Series with Witch Sleuth, Enchanted Bakery & Small Town Whodunit Murder Conspiracy

Someone is dead in Fernwick-on-the-Moor. A scone was at the scene. And the only baker in the village also happens to be a witch. When Rowan Ashby opens The Crescent Moon Bakery every morning at five AM, she does two things: she bakes, and she sets intentions. Lavender for honesty. Rosemary for clarity. Thyme for comfort. Her scones have a reputation in Fernwick that goes beyond the quality of the butter, and she has spent five careful years making sure that reputation stays in the category of charmingly eccentric rather than anything more specific. Then the village's most disliked man drops dead at the Autumn Fayre with one of her scones half-eaten on his plate. The cause of death has nothing to do with baked goods; but that doesn't stop the questions from circling back to the bakery with the Crescent Moon above its door. What nobody knows; except Rowan, her dog Pip, and the herbs in her garden; is that two people planned this. A man with twenty years of buried financial grievance, and a woman with a council career worth protecting at any cost. They met through official business three years ago. They both knew about Gerald Croft's allergy. And they both assumed that when a death occurred at a village fair, suspicion would fall on the woman whose scone was already on the table. They underestimated Pip. They underestimated the lavender. And they profoundly underestimated Rowan Ashby. Spells, Scones & Suspects is a warm, whimsical, and surprisingly dark paranormal cozy mystery about kitchen-witch magic, a community that deserves protecting, and a conspiracy that required two frightened people and one very perceptive dog to unravel. For fans of magical small-town mystery fiction, Fernwick-on-the-Moor will feel like coming home. The scone didn't do it. The lavender helped. Pip knew all along. And the two people who thought they'd been clever enough? >Spells, Scones & Suspects is the sixth book in the Curious Cases series; each novella stands completely alone, no prior reading required.
