One cursed key. One mouthy cat. One murder Maggie really didn’t sign up for.
Maggie Bellamy figured opening a cozy little jewelry shop would be her ticket to a drama-free life. Wrong. Now she’s chasing her golden retriever (who’s got the nose of a crime scene investigator), dodging her cat’s judgmental side-eye, and trying to stay one step ahead of the local podcaster turning the town’s clock tower mystery into front-page gossip.
When the discovery of a hidden panel leads to a very real dead body, Maggie’s quiet retirement from magical teaching is officially over. Time to dust off the old instincts, sort through small-town secrets, and pray the killer doesn’t make her their next “mysterious accident.”
Murder. Magic. Mischief. And Maggie thought she was just selling pretty baubles.
Hello from the cozy corners of my imagination! If we were meeting in person, you'd probably find me offering you a slice of cake, extra frosting, because life's too short!
I craft twisty tales with quirky characters, picturesque small towns, and enough red herrings to stock a fish market. My stories blend mystery and mirth, with a dash of romance and plenty of fur-baby shenanigans.
If you like your murders with giggles, sleuths with razor-sharp wit, and surprising plot twists—dive into one of my books. Warning: may cause cravings for homemade cookies and the urge to adopt a mischievous pet.View all by Sue Hollowell
