Description

USA Today bestselling author Carolyn Haines will once again delight readers with Charmed Bones, the next sparkling Sarah Booth Delaney mystery.
Zinnia, Mississippi is rife with quirky characters, but the arrival of three sister witches—and their intention to open a Wiccan boarding school—sets the small town on its ear. And bodies begin to accumulate as a result. Faith, Hope, and Charity Harrington are sexy and smart. They're setting up their boarding school in an old dairy—a piece of property with tremendous development potential. And they're standing in the way of "progress," according to some in the town.
When young Corey Fontana goes missing, Delaney Detective Agency is hired to find the youth—who's well known as a local hooligan. His mother, Kitten Fontana, who is married to the kind of land development, believes the witches have abducted her son and makes no bones about it. She's willing to pay hard cash to find her son, especially if she can implicate the witches in his disappearance.
When Sarah Booth Delaney and her partner, Tinkie Richmond, find Corey, unharmed, it is only the beginning of a series of events that include midnight dances under a full moon, love potions, and murder. Are the sister witches criminals... or victims? Do they truly have magical powers, as they claim? Sarah Booth and Tinkie must find the answer before more people are harmed.

        March 15, 2018
        The arrival of a trio of Wiccan sisters creates chaos in a Mississippi town and brings plenty of business to a female-fronted detective agency.Sarah Booth Delaney's work for the Delaney Detective Agency isn't much in demand in Sunflower County. Maybe that's because everyone feels that they know each other too well for anyone to be keeping secrets. Or maybe it's the great work local lawman Coleman Peters does keeping folks in line, though Sarah Booth may be a little biased in judging how safe her boyfriend makes the town. Either way, Sarah Booth (Sticks and Bones, 2017, etc.) is more than happy to look for Bob and Kitten Fontana's son when he runs off after spray-painting the side of Musgrove Manor. Artist and owner Trevor Musgrove couldn't care less about the mess, but new residents Faith, Hope, and Charity Harrington know the vandalism is aimed at their Wiccan heritage. Kitten insists the sisters are bringing trouble on themselves by opening the Harrington School of Nature and Wiccan Studies and even hires Sarah Booth to dig up dirt on them. Sarah Booth isn't opposed to Wicca per se, but when the sisters start to encourage her friend and colleague Tinkie Richmond's dreams of parenthood, Sarah Booth's less sure of them and her own instincts. Tinkie's been through the wringer about wanting a child, and Sarah Booth feels she must stop the sisters before they break Tinkie's heart. Before Sarah Booth can dig too deep, a dead body raises the stakes in the investigation, and Sarah Booth, Tinkie, and resident ghost Jitty all play roles in the developing "plots within plots within plots."Confusing multiple plots and double agents make this latest installment a little hard to follow, but Haines comes through in showcasing her heroine's romance and friendship where it really matters.

        March 26, 2018
        Haines’s enchanting 18th Sarah Booth Delaney mystery (after 2017’s Sticks and Bones) pits a trio of sister witches against the Zinnia, Miss., school board. Bob Fontana, the board’s chairman, and his wife, Kitten, are opposed to the plan of Hope, Faith, and Charity Harrington to open a Wicca-based school in the community. That the sisters intend to use the valuable Musgrove Dairy owned by artist Trevor Musgrove—property that Bob wants to develop—is just one matter of contention. Bob and Kitten, unscrupulous and underhanded, do what they can to undermine the reasonable sisters. When Musgrove, a notorious womanizer, is found dead, it’s up to Sarah Booth, proprietor of the Delaney Detective Agency, to investigate the many suspects. Weird supporting characters—including Corey, Kitten’s 16-year-old delinquent son, and Malvick, who claims to be the leader of the Harrington coven—add to the fun. Fans of humorous paranormal cozies will be rewarded. Agent: Marian Young, Young Agency.
