And most of the coven just ate these scones.”Visitors claim they feel summoned to Whispering Pines, Wisconsin, but can’t explain why. Residents say the same thing.

Most recently, a year ago to settle her estranged late husband’s estate.Now Reeva owns Hearth &amp; Cauldron, a quaint, cozy shop where her customers learn to make delectable dishes and find perfect pieces for their homes. When a thief makes off with a pair of vintage fluted muffin pans, Reeva wonders if her time in the village is up again.Rather than run, Reeva decides it’s time for a reset and invites the village witches over to bless her cottage. Everything goes perfectly until later in the evening when they’re having refreshments and an elderly witch becomes deathly ill after enjoying a scone and a cup of tea.Did the poor woman’s failing heart finally give out? Were the fluted markings on those scones a coincidence? Or is something more nefarious going on?  Hearth &amp; Cauldron is the first book in The Hearth &amp; Cauldron Mysteries.
