Be careful what you wish for. Hagatha Crow is listening.
Hagatha has been the most disagreeable witch in Harmony for several centuries, and she has no intention of stopping now. Christmas brings carolers, and carolers bring opportunity, and Hagatha attaches herself to them with mischief firmly in mind.
Her first target is the dark house on the corner ? the one where a young woman has kept the curtains shut since she lost her father, and where nobody has hung so much as a wreath in a year.
The trouble is that Hagatha's mischief keeps coming out wrong. Decorations appear. A kitten turns up. The whole town somehow ends up on that doorstep.
And somebody sees her doing it.
A Christmas redemption novella set in Harmony, Maine, in the world of the Mag and Clara Balefire Mysteries. Reads perfectly on its own. Clean and closed-door.
Perfect for readers who love:
• A grump who is very bad at being bad • Grief handled gently and without a lecture • Small-town Christmas that closes ranks around one person • Centuries-old witches with reputations to protect • A short, warm story with a real lump in the throat
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Hagatha steals every scene she's in and I won't hear otherwise."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "A grumpy old witch accidentally being kind. I was not prepared."
