Killerhexe in Westerham

Paranormal Investigation Bureau #6

by Dionne Lister, Tanja Lampa (Translator)

Book 6 in a bestselling paranormal cozy mystery series.

A superstar has come to town… and so has murder.

On a routine photography job, Lily meets hunky movie star and witch Jeremy Frazer, but the moment is ruined when she photographs a woman murdered years ago. When a new murder victim turns up with the same injuries, the police get on the case, only to arrest Jeremy for the crime. How can the kind, helpful, charismatic guy Lily met on the job be a cold-blooded killer?

Then Jeremy’s lawyer goes missing, and the movie star begs Lily to help him, swearing she’s the only one he trusts. Though Lily has no idea why he thinks she can save him, she takes the job. As she and Jeremy become close, jealousy gets the better of Will, and he turns his back on her. But is it really jealousy, or can he see something she can’t?

Is Lily risking happiness with Will to help a serial killer clear his name, or is she the only hope an innocent man has to find justice? And what did happen to Jeremy’s lawyer?

Reviews

[Cassandra]

This series is still going strong for me.

[Cheyanne Rash]

I’ve been preordering these and I can’t wait for the next one! I read through them so fast and can’t put them down! I love the mysteries and I love the characters, especially Lily! Thank you for getting me out of my reading slump! I can’t wait for book 7! I know it won’t disappoint!

Life never settles down

Poor Lily. She can't seem to catch a break. But, as always, she saves the day in her goofy, brave way.

[Rbucci]

Fun to read, but not her best

[Diana]

Arghhh I’ve caught up, I was silly and read them all in a week and now have to wait for book 7!

I’m really enjoying this series, it’s fast paced, fun and clean. Definitely recommended

[Monica]

Superstar

Well Lily goes out on her own for this case. I like that the new girl is here to stay. I don't like Lily and Will not being together. The case was good. Lily helped an actor find justice.

[Kendra Masterson]

I just love this series! I can’t put them down! So cute!!

[Tracy Smyth]

Another great read in this series. I’m really enjoying them. They are easy and fun to read

[Bethsheba Ashe]

Wow. What a great story!

Seriously, where can I buy an "I love Lily" T shirt? These books are wonderfully written and I can't wait to read the next one in the series.

Ich glaube Dir, auch wenn es sonst keiner tut...

Lily erhält den Auftrag die Feier zum 80. Geburtstag einer netten älteren Dame zu fotografieren. Dort lernt sie den berühmten Schauspieler Jeremy Frazer kennen, den Enkel des Geburtstagkindes. Die Feier beginnt auch ganz harmlos und Lily macht tolle Aufnahmen, während sie die Gäste, besonders Jeremy, näher kennenlernt, doch dann geht abrupt alles schief und Lily fotografiert eine Frau, die schon seit einigen Jahren tot ist und augenscheinlich von Jeremy ermordet wurde. Doch der beteuert seine Unschuld und keiner außer Lily glaubt ihm.

Während Lily alles riskiert, um Jeremys Unschuld zu beweisen, gehen die Ermittlungen der PUB gegen Dana Lam und die Regula Pythonissam weiter. Und auch da scheint das Glück nicht auf Lilys Seite zu sein.
Nichts desto trotz macht Lily immer weiter, denn um die Mörder ihrer Eltern zu finden, fehlen immer noch die entscheidenden Spuren. Aber reicht das alles, wenn sich die Schlinge um Lilys Hals immer fester zu zieht und sie auch noch ihren Freund zu verlieren droht?

Jetzt ist Lily endlich mit ihrem Agent Griesgram zusammen und schon muss Will auf eine Undercover-Mission von unbekannter Dauer. Wie heißt es so schön: Erst hat man kein Glück und dann kommt auch noch Pech dazu.

Man spürt auch wieder diese Zerrissenheit bei Lily und wie weh es ihr wirklich getan hat, als ihr keiner geglaubt hat, auch wenn sie es nach außen hin leicht nimmt, merkt man, dass es sie sehr verletzt hat und deshalb ist es auch absolut nachvollziehbar, dass sie Jeremy um jeden Preis helfen will.

Ansonsten ist es immer wieder schön, zurück nach Westerham zu kommen und der PUB einen Besuch abzustatten. Ich mag die Charaktere der Serie einfach. Allen voran Lily, die ihr Herz auf der Zunge trägt und einen fabelhaften Sinn für - teilweise sehr schwarzen - Humor hat.

[Two Nerds With Words]

I LOVE Lily so damn much. She is fierce and passionate, and so very human in her witchiness.

The author's style makes me feel like she and Lily are catching up with me over coffee, and wine, and yummy food, and telling me her larks and tales. Breaking the 4th wall works so well for her voice. It makes the series an effortless read.

The series plot is evolving beautifully. Some great decisions have been made, while Will’s path makes my heart ache though. Brilliant call by the author.

I loved this story’s plot. Jay is a great addition. It was fun (maybe not the right word) that this book felt a little edgier with the more gruesome descriptions. It really helped mix up the narrative arc.

[Elyse]

The author describes this series as fitting in the "cosy mystery" genre. That's an apt description. Easy to read and enjoy in one or two sittings.

The characters and their relationships are definitely building, as well as witch skills emerging and intensifying for our heroine, Lily. It's so refreshing to have these powers exercised in contemporary circumstances, such as through a digital camera.

Fun!

[Lushr]

i thought the quality of writing for this series would improve but by book six it is still full of inane filler, characters that don’t know the plot revealed four books ago,and really very little plot. the only benefit is how quick they are to read.
self publishers should note they still need to work with a real editor. if only for their readers sake.

[Barry Willett]

killer Witch is a Killer!

Fun book! Love Lily, who found out she is a witch on her 24th birthday. And, so is her brother and their parents!! She is learning about mastering her powers while confronted with another murder. She is fierce and funny and loyal and smart - and I am looking forward to No.7. Highly recommend!

[Amanda Holiday]

Wow! Starts as an 80 year old grandmother's birthday party at which Lily has been hired to take photos, and winds up a battle of witches. Any more and I'd spoil it for you, but if you like cliff hangers, you'll enjoy it.

[Wade]

Killer Witch in Westerham

This is a very good book in the series. I especially like when Lily is told she can not do something and she decides no one makes the decision of what she can and can not do. I enjoy watching Lily grow in her magic power every book.

[Sandra DS]

This story pace felt a little bit slower from the previous books in the series. Overall it was still an enjoyable read with moments of suspense and curiosity triggers. I will definitely continue with the series, the characters are great and fun to follow around.

[Michael Avery]

A good read, but

I really enjoyed this book, it had some nice twists and turns, but in the end, Dionne had telegraphed the outcome, which robbed the book of some of its joy. Still, I look forward to the next book in the series.

[Jane]

What would you do if a dead body suddenly appeared in a photo that you were commissioned to take? What a good storyline. Poor Lily just ends up in trouble where ever she goes. Can't wait for the next book.

[Ron Clayton]

Lily, and her magic, keep getting better and better. AND Lily is getting less stubborn! JUST KIDDING! When she believes she is right and someone is innocent, nothing, including all of her friends, will stop her from her mission.

[Krystal]

I’m sad they’ve separated Will and Lily even though I know it’s all pretend! How dare Will, Ma’am, and her brother yell at her for trying to do the right thing! I hope her magic comes back easily because that would be disturbing for her to be without it for a book!

[Latisha Bramlett]

I’m getting so tired of the will they or won’t they thing between Will & Lily. Just let them be together! At this point I’m only sticking around to see what happened with Lily’s parents.

[Paula-Diane Lufflum]

Heart wrench

A simple photoshoot for a birthday party leads to almost death for Lily, a breakup and good friends also make an appearance.

[Penny Christmas]

Good series

[Christina Blake]

Superb

Another rollicking book in this absolutely fabulous series. This was a little dark at times, yet still full of wit and humour. Excellent!!!

[Jim]

Lily's Witchy adventures continue in typical style, in this book 6 of the series.
A delightful easy read once more!
Book 7 here I come!

[Tracy]

I enjoyed reading this book. It has a good story line and great Characters. It is fun to watch the characters grow throughout the series.

[pauline holbrook]

Always a good read

Great story. I couldn't put this book down. I can't wait to read the next to find out what happens with will and Lilly.

[Ed]

Great imagination

It is a wonder that the author comes up with new adventures and interactions for the characters. I enjoy the characters. The old and new ones.

[Debz78]

Taking a job as a photographer at sometimes birthday should be an easy job? Yeah not for lily lol....She meets Jeremy (a famous actor) Liv is swooning but lily isn't, she has Will. Ok so she swoons a little 😂.

Everything seems to go from bad to worse as lily uncovers a serial killer case.

I can't put these books down.
