It Takes a Witch: A Wishcraft Mystery

By Heather Blake

Book Overview

FIRST IN THE NATIONAL BESTSELLING WISHCRAFT MYSTERY SERIES Darcy Merriweather and her sister, Harper, hail from a long line of witches who have the power to grant wishes using spells. They've come to Enchanted Village in Salem, Massachusetts, to join the family business, but soon find themselves knee-deep in murder... Until three weeks ago, Darcy and her sister, Harper, were working dead-end jobs and trying to put their troubles behind them. Then their Aunt Velma delivered a bombshell: they're actually Wishcrafters--witches with the power to grant wishes with a mere spell. Wanting a fresh start, they head to their aunt's magic-themed tourist town to master their newfound skills. But their magic fails them when a wanna-be witch turns up dead--strangled with Aunt Ve's scarf--and Ve's sweetheart, Sylar, is found looming over the body. Ve is standing by her man, but Darcy overheard Sylar wish that the victim would disappear-- forever . With Harper distracted by her handsome new crush, Darcy is determined to sleuth her way to the truth. But it'll take more than a wish to unravel this mystery...

Customer Reviews

Absolutely no substance.

I tried, I really did! I am a former high school English teacher, and I am happy to note that the author is not one of my former students.
