Captive Magic (Mystic’s End Mysteries Book 8)

Description

Fortuna’s finally feeling like things are starting to go her way. Her magical prowess continues to flourish under Miss Bessie’s tutelage and the spirited coven of ghost witches. Martin’s making progress finding homes for the retired greyhounds. Gabe is happy in his new relationship and his new job as a private eye. Pepper’s finally being taken seriously as an investigative reporter—much to her boyfriend Ollie’s delight.

But when Councilman Conrad Noble is shot dead in his office clutching a witch bottle in his hands, Fortuna must spring into action to solve the murder—the only way Chief Clutterbuck will release it from the magically-warded evidence basement.

Can Fortuna solve the murder, hide the bottles’ existence from Clutterbuck, and free the bottle’s captive ghost? Or will the bottle, and the confined witch, disappear into the department’s basement forever?
