Mystic Brews & Murder
(2026)(The first book in the Magical Teashop Mysteries series)
A novel by Karen McSpade
Starting over at midlife is hard. Doing it with magic—and a murder—is harder.
Eager for a fresh start after forty, midlife witch, Samara Snow, settles in the charming coastal town of Winter Haven, Maine, and opens her dream teahouse. She’s looking for peace, purpose, and a place where she belongs.
But when she discovers the body of a local knitting champion in her apartment stairwell, and the dead woman’s cat claims he’s her adopted familiar, her peaceful new life is suddenly steeped in mystery.
Her cozy new beginning is shattered when she finds murder, suspicion, and a town with dark secrets that doesn’t welcome questions…or witches.
Now she must awaken her magical powers to solve the mystery and clear her name. But who can she trust? Even the handsome fisherman she’s starting to fall for—and the one person that could break her heart—seems to be hiding something.
Samara teams up with her best friend Ruby, a nosy knitting circle, and her snarky black cat to uncover the truth. What she finds is a tangled web of long-buried secrets, a motive for murder, and a local who seems far too interested in keeping the past buried.
When a haunted past leads to murder, will this witch’s magic solve the case in time, or will her new life in Winter Haven come to a deadly end?
