One Minute to Midnight — Jane Hinchey

To protect the townsfolk of Assjacket, West Virginia, from my out of control, wonky magic, I'm unceremoniously thrown in the magic pokey. Until Baba Yaga herself offers me a lifeline. With conditions. Accept the role of magic bounty hunter or remain in the pokey indefinitely. My first assignment? Track down a witch suspected of practicing blood magic. Armed with rusty investigative skills and a shaky handle on my magic, I'm determined to bring the rogue witch to justice and prove everyone in Assjacket wrong. The trail takes me to New Orleans, and just when the witch is within reach, she slips away, leaving a dead body at my feet. Fortunately for me, smokin' hot local cop Jax Lincoln is on the case. Unfortunately for me, I'm his number one suspect. Now I not only need to find the rogue witch but clear my name and prove to everyone back home that I'm not the disaster they think I am. With All Hallows Eve fast approaching, I'm determined to one: get a handle on my magic before I blow up another building, two: apprehend the dark witch before she releases any more of her doodoo with the voodoo, and three: convince Jax that setting his pants on fire was purely accidental and that I'm not that bad a witch, I promise. Meet magical bounty hunter, Midnight, in book one of the Midnight Chronicles, and part of the Magic & Mayhem Universe. Full of mystery, romance, and laughs, this book is suitable for lovers of cozy mystery and paranormal women's fiction.
