Perfect for you if...

  • You love cozy mysteries with a paranormal twist and don't mind a protagonist who's rough around the edges and quick to act.
  • You enjoy ensemble casts where the found family dynamics matter as much as solving the central mystery.
  • You're after something fun and lighter in tone but still plot-driven, with genuine stakes and magic that feels lived-in rather than explained to death.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer mysteries where the detective is methodical and logical rather than impulsive and sarcastic.
  • You want your supernatural fiction serious and atmospheric, not playful and action-forward.
  • You need complete answers about a character's backstory upfront rather than unfolding secrets across a series.

About this book

Scout Randall is a witch and member of the Spell's Angels, a worldwide biker group dedicated to fighting evil. She has a mysterious past she cannot remember and tends to act impulsively. Scout is transferred to Hawthorne Hollow in northern Lower Michigan, a town where magic operates openly. Her powers are constantly visible to the community. No one will explain what happened to her predecessor in the position. Scout becomes distracted by the town's residents, including Gunner Stratton, a shifter with secrets of his own. She discovers that dead are rising in Hawthorne Hollow and suspects involvement by a local church with unclear origins. Scout must learn to work with her new colleagues and townspeople to confront an enemy powerful enough to destroy Hawthorne Hollow entirely. She is determined to complete her assignment despite the mounting challenges.
