The Midsummer Murders
(2020)(The third book in the Maid, Mother, and Crone Paranormal Mystery series)
A novel by Jill Nojack
When an elderly witch leaves a freshly mummified corpse that is rapidly crumbling to dust, dark magic must be to blame, mustn't it? But when Natalie Taylor, high priestess of the local coven, investigates, she finds no magic present. Not a crumb. She'll have to leave it to the town's coroner to sort this one out.
Plus, she has her hands full with a disobedient trainee witch, a murder of crows that have chosen Cat's Magical Shoppe as their favorite roosting place, and rising panic among the townspeople that the quirky town of Giles is in the throes of a new plague. Medical-mask wearing residents would ruin attendance at the annual Witching Faire.
But when two more witches crumble to dust, it doesn't matter if she's dealing with magical murder or a murderous plague; the people she loves are in mortal danger. Can she find the cause and stop it before one of them is taken?
Each book in the Maid, Mother, and Crone series is a stand-alone mystery with a cast of ongoing characters.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
