Genre: Paranormal
Series: Magical Bakery Mystery #7
First Sentence: The bleat of a boat horn drifted from the river to mingle with the sounds of the Savannah waterfront.
Blurb: It’s been exactly two years since Katie and her aunt and uncle opened the Honeybee Bakery, where they serve delicious—and bespelled—treats to the good people of Savannah. After a dinner celebrating the bakery’s anniversary, they all take a stroll along the waterfront and meet Aunt Lucy’s friend Orla, a colorful character who has been telling the fortunes of locals and tourists alike for years.
The next day, Orla meets with what seems like a terrible accident, but Katie’s witchy intuition tells her it was something more sinister. Together with her trustworthy coven and her firefighter boyfriend, she’ll race to find out what happened to the unfortunate fortune-teller before the piping hot trail goes cold.
My Opinion: The ending was a little too creepy for me. Other than that, it was a pleasant visit with the friends and family who make the Honeybee Bakery in Savannah, Georgia, their home away from home.
What begins with the death of fortune teller Orla has the ladies befuddled since odd things are happening and their past experiences haven’t prepared them for anything like it before. Between the ladies of the coven, they cover the usual light witchery stuff that helps people, but this seems to go beyond their fixing of broken hearts and setting misunderstandings right.
This is still a hit-or-miss series for me. Though I was creeped out by the ending, overall, it was a hit for me, and soon I will be picking up the next book in the series, Cookies and Clairvoyance.
