She is curious, but the case has to be passed to her sister Bernie, a high-ranking police officer. After all, what’s a small-town features writer and domestic witch going to do about the death of a local folk musician? Quite a lot, as it turns out. The murder weapon was a magical songbook. Anne Boleyn’s legacy extends down the centuries, and has far more to do with this sleepy corner of Norfolk than anyone had realised. The ghost of Mark Smeaton is prancing around, the unpleasant descendants of the witchfinder general are rising, and Jackie is trying to photograph some llamas in a nursing home. Things take a serious turn as she’s forced to make a difficult choice, but luckily her friends have got her back: Clare, who’s the serious, studious, clever one, and then of course there’s Gloria. She likes purple. If – like Jackie – you’ve ever had to hastily conduct a magic spell in a public convenience, this book is for you. From the author of The Celtic Witch Mysteries comes this new series – all the laughs, eccentricities and British folklore that you expect, with a brand-new cast of lovable characters.
