About Ghosts and Grimoires: A Willowmere cozy midlife witch mystery novella

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.
