The Magic of Death

Witches, Murder, and Ghosts, oh my! In Dead End, Texas—where it's spooky season all year long—Star Bell is doing her best to ignore her magical heritage. Sure, she comes from a long line of witches dating back to Salem, but communicating with the dead has only brought her trouble. Besides, the one spirit she wants to talk to—her sister Astra—has ghosted her completely.

Life is complicated enough juggling family businesses while living with three generations of Bells, including a teenager who's acting strange and an aunt who's behaving like she's decades younger. But when a suspicious death rocks their tourist town and her niece becomes the prime suspect, Star has no choice but to embrace the ability she's spent a lifetime hiding.

With a skeptical detective watching her every move and only the spirits of Dead End as witnesses, Star uncovers secrets that connect to Astra's mysterious death years ago. Now she's racing to solve both cases before she becomes Dead End's next permanent resident.

Welcome to Dead End, where the living keep secrets, and the dead tell tales—if only someone would listen.

First in the Dead End Witches series. A small-town paranormal mystery with witty banter, family secrets, reluctant magic, and a protagonist who'd rather be dealing with the living than the dead. Cozy with an edge—where the supernatural meets small-town shenanigans and a whisper of romance.
