Bewitching Mystery: Book 3

Maggie O'Neill is back with her first person account of the adventures she encounters in the small Indiana town where she lives. She continues to love her work with Felicity Dow at the Enchantments mystical antique shop. But a chance meeting with a talented Amish woodcarver becomes complicated when the handsome man turns up dead in the woods with mysterious hex symbols by his body. This is just one more, in a recent series of events that appear to involve the darker side of magic. What is going on in this small town?

This is another nice cozy mystery with intriguing characters. I'd really like to see Maggie hook up with Marcus, the mysterious warlock, instead of boring Tom, the county sherriff. He's kind of a stuffed shirt in my opinion. But there are a number of other returning characters as well in this magical, Murder She Wrote-type story.
