Charmed to Death: An Ophelia and Abby Mystery

An Iowa librarian and her grandmother use their paranormal gifts to stop a serial killer in this mystery by the author of Witch Way to Murder.

Ophelia Jensen’s good witch granny Abigail revels in her paranormal powers. But Ophelia never asked for her bothersome psychic abilities—especially since they proved worthless when the thirty-something librarian’s best friend Brian was murdered by a still-unknown assailant.

Now, five years later, another friend is gone, killed in almost identical fashion. Even dear old Abby isn’t safe, distracted as she is by her fight to prevent a massive, mega-polluting pig-farming operation from invading their small Iowa town. And Ophelia can’t count on her snarling, scoffing nemesis, police detective Henry Comacho, to get the job done, so she’ll have to take matters into her own hands. Because a common thread to the crimes—and a possible next victim—is suddenly becoming troublingly apparent . . . and it’s Ophelia Jensen herself!

Praise for Charmed to Death

“This is a very special mystery in an enchanting series, as Ophelia and Abby perform magic in the traditional Bell, Book and Candle methodology.” —Harriet Klausner
