Enter Connor Smith, Meg's former crush, who left for San Francisco 10 years before, and who has now returned to town as the new detective with the Enchanted Bay police department. If Meg's feelings were mixed enough over having Connor back in town, the detective wrongfully suspects one of Meg's good friends for murder.

Some cases hit close to the bone. For amateur sleuth Sabrina Carlson, this is one of them. In Sabrina's mind, missing-persons investigations are always the hardest. Mostly because they remind her of losing her sister years before. If fighting off flashbacks of her sister's death isn't bad enough, this current case is one of the most difficult of Sabrina's career. After all, Claire Blakely didn't just disappear without a trace. She also didn't have any enemies. In addition, as far as Sabrina can tell, there are no leads to work with.

Fun Cozy Mystery
This is part ofa series but a great stand alone book. A close family friend is found dead. Megs mother is the first to know. She sees his light on and an open door. This man had become a surrogate father to her and so much support for her Mom. They did a seance to call his ghost back to find out he didn't know who did it. He tried fighting but passed out quick. Even his kids all had things to make them angry with him to make them look guilty. The storyline is interesting, Lainie Pahos does a great job to keep your interest. The characters are believable and interesting. I enjoyed this book, you have to read the book to find out the end.

Strangling Ambition
Once again murder comes to town. Only this time Meg's mother asks for her help because a friend of her is involved. Now Meg has to walk a tight rope between helping out her mother, Connor and hiding her ability as a witch. At one point she's almost caught by Connor in casting a spell. Fast talk and luck keep the secret. But a murderer is still on the loose and Meg and Connor have to find the murderer before he or she strikes again.
Lainie Pahos is a fantastic narrator and it is a joy to listen to her.
Fantastic audio and story.

good storyline
When Meg's mom finds her friend murdered she implores Meg to help find the killer, though a little magic goes a long way this one is going to take a bit , to many suspects but with the help of her aunt/cat she just might be able to narrow it down.
