Spell Booked (The Retired Witches Spellbook Mystery #1)

Molly’s lifelong friend, witchly compatriot, and the snappiest dresser in Wilmington, Olivia Dunst, is killed protecting their book of spells. Even though Olivia gave her life, the book is gone. Molly and Elsie, the two remaining of their circle, can’t track it because their power is limited. It must be passed on if they are going to retire. A new young recruit, Dorothy, from the downtown library, agrees to become their apprentice. She will bolster their failing magic and help track down Olivia’s killer.
