Spells & Shenanigans — Karen MacInerney

Welcome to Misty Hollow—population: charmingly weird, delightfully witchy, and now… possibly murderous.When down-on-her-luck Amanda Appleton breaks down just outside Misty Hollow, Vermont, she expects car trouble—not cursed objects, spectral drama, or (especially not) enchanted feral vacuum cleaners. Taken in by the eccentric Blackthorne family, owners of the local magic shop The Crooked Broomstick, Amanda quickly learns the town runs on something more mystical more than than maple syrup and small-town gossip.Oh, and her ghostly Aunt Matilda? She's being eaten by some weird vampire bat thing. Spiritually.As Amanda tries to save her aunt's afterlife, hold down a job at a broomstick boutique, and avoid being hexed before breakfast, she's pulled into a decades-old murder mystery—and apparently, she's the finder destined to solve it. No pressure.But when a body turns up and the wrong witch gets arrested, Amanda has no choice but to dive broom-first into Misty Hollow's darkest secrets.Murder, magic, and meddling ghosts—just another week in Misty Hollow.Perfect for fans of witchy cozies, sassy spirits, and sleuthing with a side of sparkles.
