After spending months unable to use her powers, Brynn Warren is once again using her gift and working at her family's bed-and-breakfast. Her heart is full, and although one of her aunts wonders if it might be a little more full with a bit of romance in her life, Brynn is certain that finding love again is not in her future. In fact, she can’t imagine anyone being more certain of anything…except for maybe, the recently deceased Mortimer Sweete. He’s certain he’s been murdered, and he wants Brynn’s help to bring his killer to justice.
Mort is positive he knows who killed him: his business partner's wife, Cookie, who had been trying to get them to sell the candy shop for months. But Brynn doesn't share his conviction. After all, the coroner ruled his death natural causes, and Mort did have health problems in life. But with Cookie putting up a For Sale sign for the shop already, Brynn knows she can't just let it go.
Trying to solve a might-be murder while attempting to stop her aunt from meddling in her personal life seems like a recipe for disaster. If Brynn wants to bring Mort's spirit peace, she'll have to rely on all her skills—both magical and mundane—to uncover the truth.

The good witches of Connecticut get another chance to use their distinctive individual talents. Evenfall has long been the home of the Warren family, which currently includes young widow Brynn, her aunts Izzy and Nora, and her uncle Gideon, who together run the Ivywood Hollow Bed and Breakfast. Izzy is a gourmet cook whose recipes contain a little extra something in the way of spells. Imperious Nora has a talent for growing all types of plants. Gideon keeps to himself in the attic, and Brynn can see ghosts. When Mortimer Sweete, from the Sweetes' Shoppe, appears to her, claiming to have been murdered, she's forced to get involved since he's heard the witchy rumors and knows that she's solved a murder. Unfortunately, the little he remembers about his end isn't enough to challenge the police assumption that he had a heart attack brought on by eating a box of candy in the town gazebo and triggering his diabetes. Although Brynn tries to get Mort to go with her and give a message to his wife, Angie, he refuses. A vision in the family cauldron gives her a clue but not the answer to Mort's death. As she investigates, she feels uneasy. Cookie, the wife of Mort's partner, is all too eager to sell the shop, and Angie's handsome neighbor Elias Blumenthal seems overly solicitous. Could the answer lie in his poison garden? A lighthearted tale of good witches, romance, and hope.COPYRIGHT(2022) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
