Why the Aura Glow Gloams: A Murder, She Witches Mystery

In Grimstone Grove—a place where magic simmers just beneath the surface—a mirror within the Luscious Locks Beauty Salon reveals more than just a reflection. When an aura mirror in the salon foretells a deathly fate that comes to pass, the tranquil life of retired teacher and amateur sleuth Octavia Grimstone is plunged into upheaval. Her Three Witches Bookstore becomes not only a haven for the quaint and the curious, but the center of an intricate investigation into murder most foul. Wielding cozy mystery writing expertise, Octavia, along with her fellow midlife witches, must unravel the web of secrets entwined with the mystical mirror. Accidents and omens lead down a shadowy path lined with potential suspects including the salon’s charming owner, everyday clients, and figures cloaked in envy and ambition. Tasked with solving the mystery a nonmagical evidence-driven inspector, who reluctantly joins forces with witchy wisdom and magical intuition, a formidable combination in pursuit of the truth. As the lore of the mirror deepens, implicating more of Grimstone Grove’s inhabitants in its dark aura, Octavia finds herself facing off with forces as unpredictable as they are dangerous. With the help of her snarky feline familiar, Elzadora, and the subtly alluring Cassius Morgenthrall, whose past is as shadowed as the mystery itself, Octavia steers through a maze of deceit, ancient symbols, and metaphysical challenges. The sinister reflection of the aura mirror hangs over them all, and as Octavia lays cunning traps to reveal the killer, she must also confront chilling revelations that reach beyond the grave. Sit back, light a candle, and open the shadow-draped pages of Why the Aura Glow Gloams, where the darkest magic meets the deadliest of intentions in a tale that’s spellbinding until the very last reflection. —- ISBN: 9798321563373 | ISBN10: B0CZLDQY14 | ISBN-13: 979-8321563373
