So now I must figure out how I was murdered. How do I know I was killed...because Older Lilith's Ghost can't remember how she died and the only way that happens is if I was murdered. At least that's what they tell me. But in the meantime I'm a witch private investigator hired by a Coven detective to find another missing Coven detective. She was sent undercover and hasn't checked in for months. She was to infiltrate a cult called the Cold Dawn. Funny, that name sounds somehow familiar. Speaking of familiar...my familiar is a little different. His name is Sir Kain and he was a knight in his former life. Now he is a living statue. Why couldn't I have gotten a little furball familiar? Oh well, Sir Kain has grown on me and I wouldn't trade him for the world now, especially since he's saved my life one or 20 times. So hold onto your hats kids...this will be a bumpy ride! ***This is the First Book in the Lilith Blackward Cozy Witch Series***
