About this ebook

The perfect Thanksgiving recipe for disaster — means, motive…and opportunity.

As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, Selena finds herself soothing the nerves of her friend Josie, who’s now Globe’s newly minted mayor. Popular television preacher Aaron Galloway is bringing his traveling prayer gathering to town, and Josie is worried Selena’s New Age shop will attract negative attention.

Josie’s concern is touching, but Selena can’t imagine her humble little shop being any more than a blip on the faithful’s radar. Still, she does a quick Tarot reading, just to be sure. To her dismay, the cards warn there’s trouble brewing. What kind and how deep it goes is anyone’s guess. Until Galloway falls over dead of arsenic poisoning — and Josie is accused of murder.

Holiday plans are put on hold as Selena races to prove Josie’s innocence. And as she begins unearthing something rotten under the megachurch’s squeaky-clean veneer, the real killer is getting nervous...and determined to mow down anyone who gets too close to the truth.

KEYWORDS: witch, warlock, wizard, sorcerer, psychic, medium, telepath, cop hero, sheriff, detective, police, tarot, crystal ball, wicca, small town romance, small town mystery, fish out of water, opposites attract, cozy mystery, cozy dog mystery, cozy witch mystery

This is the latest installment by Christine Pope in her Hedgewitch for Hire series. It follows the continuing romance/marriage of Calvin Standingbear and Serena Marx. Calvin is a tribal police chief and Serena, a witch, runs a new age store as well as sticking her nose into murder investigations in the town of Globe, Arizona where her store is located. Fortunately for their marriage Calvin’s tribal lands are a different jurisdiction. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Book eight of the Hedgewitch for Hire series, and it’s the first Thanksgiving Selena and Cal are celebrating together with family as a married couple. I really enjoyed this it was funny and felt like it was a real holiday with family. And Josie, poor Josie, she just ends up in this kind of situation. It’s nice to see a bit of a different side to her, as she’s not my favorite character, but this was one of those moments where I really felt for her. Christine Pope has a way of creating worlds.

Since this is Book 8, there is a lot of backstory in the first seven books. It would be more enjoyable to have read them first, to appreciate all the “in-joke” references in the current book. The pace of the story is leisurely despite it happening over just a few days. Selena gets deeply involved in another mystery when the Life Springs Church comes to town and her best friend, Josie, is arrested for the murder of its pastor, Aaron Galloway. By the way, it was none of the usual suspects!
