Spells and Secrets (Brightstone Bay Cozy Witch Mysteries Book 2)
By Paula Lester
Former magical investigator Maple Winterbourne wasn’t exactly invited to Brightstone Bay—it was more of a magical banishment with a side of disgrace. Now stuck in the quaint, seaside town, Maple plans to keep her head down and avoid trouble.
Those plans go up in smoke when a magical electrician is found dead right in the middle of a daycare’s enchanted playroom. Between dodging suspicious Council members and reluctantly stepping into the chaos of paranormal kid daycare life, Maple is pulled into solving the case before things get even messier.
With her sarcastic fox familiar, Solstice, at her side, Maple digs into the victim’s tangled life. But her investigation unearths more than she bargained for: black-market dealings, dangerous secrets, and mentions of a shadowy operation called Project Whisper.
Armed with quick wit, clever magic, and a questionable talent for improvising, Maple must untangle the clues before the killer strikes again—or before the daycare play ends in more flames than applause.
Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries, magical mishaps, and quirky small towns, Spells and Secrets is a spellbinding whodunit guaranteed to charm and delight.
