A reluctant witch, a haunted funeral home, and a dead body. Welcome home, Hazel.
Hazel Underwood has returned to her magical hometown of Foxfire Haven, Washington, with her tail between her legs.
A metaphorical tail, of course. Witches don’t have tails.
While renovating the old funeral home she inherited from her uncle, Hazel stumbles on a dead body stashed underneath the hearse. Who wanted the delivery-truck driver dead, and how did he wind up in Hazel’s garage? Chief Constable Hightower thinks Hazel might have killed Steve with her magic, and she’s determined to prove the handsome old curmudgeon wrong.
Suspects range from a beautiful vampire with a passion for potions to the garden store gnome, but as Hazel closes in on solving the murder, she learns there’s another mystery to unravel. What happened to Hazel’s uncle in his final years to turn him into an obsessed treasure-hunter? And does his story tie into Steve’s murder?
Hazel will have to team up with her witchy new roommates to catch a killer, stand up to judgmental small-town locals, and get her magic back on track. Who knew midlife could be so complicated?
The Crones of a Feather paranormal cozy mystery series is about starting over at midlife, magic, and building a sisterhood with strong, inspiring women. Practical Magic meets The Golden Girls in this fun, lighthearted series.

This is book 1 from a new series and oh my is it good. Hazel has moved back to the magical small town where she grew up. She'd spent the past 35 years living in a big city, without using her magic, but after an incident decided to return to her hometown where she could start practicing magic again. To get a little income, Hazel advertises for roommates and ends up with three.
What I loved most about this book is the friendship with Hazel and her roommates. All four of the women are witches and they're so supportive of each other and are especially patient with Hazel's inexperience with magic. There's no judging, no arguing, and they all step up when making dinner or if someone needs an extra hand.
I adore this author and love everything I've read of hers. I'm really excited to see what happens next in future books in this series.
I just received the book today, but I am 100% sure I will absolutely love it! I have read all of Beth’s books and they are fabulous. Now that her books are in physical form, I can buy them to add to my library!! Thanks Beth for keeping us entertained and helping us fall into the story!! 🙌🏽🤗
