Summary

Alexandra Daniels hasn't set foot in the quiet seaside town of Bellamy Bay, North Carolina in over twenty years. Ever since her mother's tragic death, her father has mysteriously forbidden her from visiting her aunt and cousins. But on a whim, Alex accepts an invitation to visit her estranged relatives and to help them in their family business: a herbal apothecary known for its remarkably potent teas, salves, and folk remedies.

Bellamy Bay doesn't look like trouble, but this is a town that harbours dark secrets. Alex discovers that her own family is at the centre of salacious town gossip and that they are rumoured to be magical healers descended from mermaids. She brushes this off as nonsense until a local is poisoned and her aunt Lidia is arrested for the crime. Alex is certain Lidia is being framed, and she resolves to find out why.

Alex's investigation unearths stories that some have gone to desperate lengths to conceal: forbidden affairs, family rivalries, and the truth about Alex's own ancestry. And when the case turns deadly, Alex learns that not only are these secrets worth hiding, but they may even be worth killing for.

This sounds like fun! I've got the e-book on hold, should get it in a couple of weeks.

A Spell for Trouble is the first book I have read by Esme Addison. I will read another one of her books. I love to discuss it with you, Janice.

Hey ladies! I’m about 15% in to the book, really enjoying it so far. This is my first kick at the cab with this author as well... I think you will like it.😊💕

Hey Eden, I’m just over 50% done, would love to get your comments so far... I’m enjoying it, but Alex is bugging me... 😋

Jenny, are you reading this one? Don’t want to write any spoilers 🤩

Just saw your review... I’ll wait and see if Eden is finished before commenting!
