Wicked Witches of Bone Gap #6
Cadaver at the Cemetery Gates
IN A WORLD WHERE WITCHCRAFT HAS BEEN REVEALED... SOME SECRETS SHOULD HAVE STAYED HIDDEN.
"Some contracts demand more than just a signature."
Meet SAGE POE – witch, programmer, and amateur detective. She thought the hardest part of summer would be helping Bone Gap adjust to its newly-revealed magical nature. Then they found the body at the cemetery gates.
When a bearded stranger turns up dead outside Bone Gap Cemetery with no visible wounds but unmistakable magical residue, the official ruling is natural causes. But Sage knows better. What begins as an unofficial investigation soon uncovers a famous musician in hiding, ancient demonic contracts, and creative energy harvested like crop.
Enter AUNT HECATE – whose improving magical dementia hides a sacrifice spanning decades. Her mind wasn't clouded by age but by choice – a demonic bargain made before Sage's youngest sister was born. Now the same demon has come to collect another debt, and the connection hits closer to home than anyone suspected.
Meanwhile, SHERIFF EMMET QUILL finds himself caught between upholding the law and helping the woman he loves investigate forces beyond mortal jurisdiction. As Bone Gap fractures between those embracing their magical reality and those fighting against it, even their relationship hangs in the balance.
With magical ley lines converging beneath three cemeteries, shadowy figures captured in innocent photographs, and melodies that hide protection spells, Sage must solve the case before more creative souls pay the ultimate price.
In Bone Gap, some deals are better left unmade – and some demons harbor unexpectedly human feelings.
This summer, death isn't just knocking... it's performing.
BONE GAP. Where the graves run deep, the magic runs deeper, and even the dead have something to hide.

Twice through … going for three, and I am in LOVE! I can’t tell you with who … that would be a huge spoiler, but when you listen to “Cadaver at the Cemetery Gates”, I’m fairly certain you’ll not only guess, but you too may fall! To say I’m thoroughly and unabashedly HOOKED on this DIVINE series would be the understatement of the year! As far as this story’s plot, I can’t divulge a single detail without giving away spoilers and that would be … just wrong! That said, this story, THIS perfectly constructed, delightfully twisty story, had my “feels” not only fully engaged, but getting an Olympic workout as I had my heart stolen with fists pumping and happy tears flowing! I loved every moment I spent with these beautifully crafted characters! I would love to be able to visit the magically created world that came beautifully, perfectly, ALIVE as I listened to their stunningly unique, fabulously consistent voices that subtly, yet perfectly expressed every emotion THEY were feeling … entrancing me … drawing so DEEPLY into THEIR story … that as I listened MY feelings swung wildly from giddy … to looking for something to toss, then back again! As I said earlier, I can’t go into the plot without engaging in huge spoilers, so I’ll just say … don’t pass on this story, this series! Just do it! You won’t be sorry! “Cadaver at the Cemetery Gates” - An exquisite collaboration of a dynamic, vibrant, perfectly professional narrator giving life to a truly gifted authors brilliant creation! Five fantastic stars! Perfection across all categories! Oh My Heart! Amazing and I LOVED it!

wild, witchy and wonderful
Sisters Sage, Angelica and Lovage Poe along with their beloved aunt Hecate make up this wild, witchy and wonderful family that have to survive the impending magical storm that comes into their generational community, when a beloved artist dies in a horrifying ritualistic way.
It stuns and horrifies their magical community and opens the door to a realization that the deaths, disguised as natural deaths has secretly been happening for years. It’s coming again for someone else in their community - the clock is ticking - can Sage and her witchy community come together with the clues to save their families?
A well written story with a wonderful cast of characters and an absolutely worthwhile read
