A Spell of Malevolent Motives
(2026)(The third book in the Witchy Ways After Forty series)
A novel by Raven Raine
Some prophecies aren’t meant to be challenged. But Heather Nicholls has never been good at following the rules.
Her Aunt Ruth knows the exact date of her death—and she refuses to say how.
The discovery of a yellowed letter reveals the chilling truth—Marian Blackwood, a malevolent witch imprisoned for theft, has vowed to exact revenge upon her release, and that day is rapidly approaching.
As Heather’s midlife world tilts on its axis, she teams up with an unlikely group of allies to counter the impending threat: Raven, her cursed not-yet-boyfriend; Lydia, a fellow witch from Chirtlewood House, and the manor’s eccentric ghosts; and Quinn, an arrogant paranormal witch hunter. To complicate matters further, the steadfast Inspector Pentecost closes in on their supernatural activities.
Together, they must confront not only Marian’s unrelenting malice, but also a sinister adversary born of utter darkness bent on destruction.
Time is running out for Heather to save those she loves from an unimaginable fate. As the ominous forces converge around her, Heather faces an impossible choice.
