The answer to whodunit may lie beyond the veil . . .

November in upstate New York can be chilly, but Kailyn Wilde's shop, Abracadabra, is a cozy respite where you can find lotions, potions, and plenty of warm, feline company. But what customers don't know is that the proprietor has some unusual powers-and unusual friends, including the renowned magician Merlin, who's been transported into the modern world. All of which comes in handy when there's a murder to be solved . . .

Investigative journalist Ryan Cutler has perished in a car accident in New Camel, and his friend, Travis, suspects foul play-especially when the reporter's notes reveal a mysterious list of dead men's names. Kailyn wants to help, but she's also got her hands full with the curmudgeonly Merlin, who's not exactly maintaining a low profile. Between keeping the wizard under wraps and mixing up cold remedies that work like magic, she'll have to tap into her many talents to figure out a killer's fatal formula . . .

"A charming, must-read mystery with enchanting characters. A fun and entertaining page turner."-Rose Pressey, USA Today bestselling author
