Sometimes the worst day of your life is just the beginning.

Blythe Fairfield has officially failed at adulthood. Divorced. Fired. Broke. When she inherits Gallows Gate House in the small town of Cauldron Hollow from her allegedly unhinged great-aunt, she decides it's a temporary stop. Renovate. Sell. Leave.

Then her cat starts talking.

Cauldron Hollow isn't just quaint. It was founded by two rival witch families. The Stoneharts stayed. The Tallowmeres were driven out.

Guess which family Blythe belongs to.

Between a house that hums with old magic, a violet streak suddenly appearing in her hair, and a snarky familiar named Pippin who keeps saying 'Obviously,' Blythe barely has time to process her new reality before she stumbles over a dead body behind Merlin's Diner.

The victim made enemies. Unfortunately, Blythe just made the suspect list. With the town's frustratingly handsome sheriff watching her every move and a killer determined to protect their secrets, Blythe must decide whether she's still running from her inheritance or finally ready to claim it.
