Potions Are for Pushovers

About the book

Perhaps it was a specter that led Eleanor Wilde to establish her business in a charming English village. As the town's resident witch, Ellie now happily brews spells for anyone who is desperate enough—or foolish enough—to seek out her enigmatic potions…

Selling enchanting elixirs and captivating concoctions provides a lucrative income for a fraudulent psychic. It's Ellie's primary source of livelihood, until a local resident is found dead. The cause? Poison. Though Ellie's brews contain no toxic ingredients, she finds herself the primary suspect. To clear her name, she must uncover the true perpetrator behind Sarah Blackthorne's demise. Despite no one mourning the loss of the cantankerous old woman, did anyone truly despise her enough to commit murder?

This curious case leads Ellie to consider abandoning her witchcraft and accepting the financial support of her wealthy admirer, Nicholas Hartford. However, Ellie refuses to depend on a man—especially one she loves but whose role in her life remains uncertain. Plus, she is mentoring two young apprentice witches who are convinced a werewolf is the culprit.

As Ellie ponders the possibility of supernatural forces at work, a string of animal disappearances—including her treasured cat, Beast—unsettles her. Determined to uncover the sinister truths of her newfound home and its inhabitants, Ellie embarks on a quest for justice.
