Ghosts and Grimoires

A message from beyond the grave. A stolen grimoire. A ghostly ally.

Willowmere is unusually quiet, and for the first time, midlife witch Bex Merriweather is missing trouble.
Until she receives a letter her late aunt left for her.

It’s a final request, and ignoring it is unthinkable for Bex and her opinionated familiar, cat Cosmo Merlin de Beaufort. They have no choice but to leave their peaceful home to acquire a disguised grimoire at an auction. It’s up to Bex and Cosmo to divine exactly where and how it is hidden.

Their task gets even harder when a cloaking spell prevents them from using their own magic to locate the grimoire. They aren’t the only ones after it.
Then the auction house is burgled - and the grimoire vanishes. Now the hunt is on, before it is used to unleash black magic on innocent people.

Unexpected help comes in the form of a pet-whispering ghost. Flapper Adriana Darling is also on a mission, to find a necklace linked to the mystery of her death - and the fate of her afterlife.

Together the witch, her talking cat, and the irrepressible ghost conjure up a plan to solve the case…
