A locket, a legacy, and a whole lot of magical mayhem…
When Maggie Bellamy receives a vintage locket and a note from her late friend Constance—“It’s your turn now.”—she’s suddenly the town’s new magical protector… whether she’s ready or not.
Before she can even process her new role, a romantic picnic ends in chaos: a stolen basket, a broken charm, and a mysterious puzzle box with magical carvings and a cryptic riddle. The clues? All point back to the locket—and to Constance’s final secrets.
Now Maggie must unravel a magical mystery involving enchanted gossip, cursed cookies, a rival puzzle enthusiast, and a town whose protective spells are starting to crack. With the help of a grumpy sheriff, a chatty cat, and an overexcited dog, she’ll have to unlock the truth before Cedarvale’s magic disappears for good.
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
