Don't Curse Me Like That: A Witches of Holiday Hills Cozy Mystery

About Don't Curse Me Like That: A Witches of Holiday Hills Cozy Mystery

USA TODAY Bestselling Author Carolyn Ridder Aspenson is back with a fun and funny romp in Holiday Hills! Competition is one thing, but murder is another. When Page Turners, a new bookstore in Holiday Hills, opens its doors, it’s not just books flying off the shelves—accusations are too.

Constantine Fairbanks, the tech-savvy owner of the shop, claims Bessie, the heart of The Enchanted Bookstore and Cafe, and Holiday Hills itself, is trying to sabotage her competition, his business. With glitchy e-readers and talk of other crazy events, the town is buzzing with gossip. Things heat up when a bomb explodes, putting Constantine in the hospital.

When he dies, gossip focuses on Bessie, but I can’t let her be tried and convicted by gossip alone. Cooper, Stella, Pony, and I dive into the mystery, intent on clearing Bessie’s name and finding the culprit. Like the cozy mysteries I write, I wind up on the top of the killer’s enemy list.

Can we find the killer before I end up six feet under?
