A Witchy Business by D.S. Butler
5.0
What’s a witch to do when the local pain ends up dead in a barrel and you’re the only who can see and speak to her ghost? Well, for Harper Grant, her mission is to help Elizabeth Naggington discover who murdered her, why and help Elizabeth move on. It won’t be an easy task especially in a town full of people who aren’t exactly sad that the local nag is dead. Harper will have to tread carefully so that she doesn’t draw the negative eye of the local police force…and a certain handsome new recruit due to her unique gift of being able to talk to ghosts. Because let’s be honest…being the only one who can see and speak to ghosts can make you look a little crazy in a town full of “normals.”
A Witchy Business by Danica Britton is the first book in her Harper Grant Mystery series. This book is told in the first person. Harper Grant is an interesting character. I like that the author gives the reader some background on Harper from the beginning and a bit of a surprise with a side character as well. This story has some fun twists and a couple of surprises. I enjoy a good “who done it” and this book definitely gives the reader that as Harper goes around trying to figure out who killed Elizabeth. Honestly, the list could be as long as the number of residents in the town, but the author does a good job keeping the reader guessing.
There isn’t anything that I don’t like about this book. The author does a good job weaving an engaging story from start to finish. We get a nice little hint of romance in the story as well. There is humor, a hint of romance, and mystery.
I am rating this book this book 5 out of 5 stars. This is a good mystery novel. This is the first book that I have read by this author and one that I enjoyed reading. If you are a fan of cozy mystery novels with witches with less than perfect powers/skills then I recommend this book. I’m sure that you’ll enjoy.
