Every Witch Way but Juno: A Talking Cat Cozy Mystery

by K.E. O'Connor

I survived magical prison. I’m not so sure I’ll survive what’s waiting for me back home.After my stint in prison for a crime I didn't commit, I want nothing more than quiet streets, friendly faces, and my witch by my side. But Zandra isn't there to greet me, the town’s magic is sparking out of control, and everyone acts like my homecoming might be the start of something terrible!

Then a young woman from the Sea Foam Festival is found dead on the beach, surrounded by sea glass and a death sigil. Angel Force is stumped (what a shocker), and I feel the truth settle in my bones. Someone killed her.

With a taffy maker who looks guilty, a mild-mannered historian who knows too much, and a town full of secrets, I dive into a twisty whodunit where every clue pulls me closer to danger. If I can't uncover what really happened, I might lose more than my witch. I might lose the town I love.

Perfect for readers of paranormal crime cozies, magical amateur sleuths, clever familiars, small-town secrets, sassy chat, laugh-out-loud moments, and twisty cozy mysteries filled with charm, magic, and danger.

She graduated from the Universities of Southampton and Reading, where she received degrees in Archaeology and Cognitive Evolution (both highly entertaining to take part in, but with the career options of a ground witch’s toe bone.)
