description: Every town has its secrets but no one has a secret like hers. Amber Blackwood lifelong resident of Edgehill Oregon has earned a reputation for being a semi-reclusive odd duck. Her store The Quirky Whisker is full of curiosities from extremely potent sleepy teas and ever-burning candles to kids toys that seem to run endlessly without the aid of batteries. The people of Edgehill think of the Quirky Whisker as an integral part of their feline-obsessed town but most give Amber herself a wide berth. Amber prefers it that way; it keeps her secret safe. But that secret is thrown into jeopardy when Ambers friend Melanie is found dead a vial of headache tonic from Ambers store clutched in her hand. Edgehills newest police chief has had it out for Amber since he arrived three years before. He cant possibly know shes a witch but his suspicions about her odd store and even odder behavior have shot her to the top of his suspect list. When the Edgehill rumor mill finds out Melanie was poisoned its not only the police chief who looks at Amber differently. Determined to both find justice for her friend and to clear her own name Amber must use her unique gifts to help track down Melanies real killer. A quest that threatens much more than her secret
