Witch Cozy Mystery · The Witches of Ephraim Harbor
What the Ice Kept
When the harbor ice went out, it gave back a car that had been missing for thirty-seven years. The man inside never left town after all.
Britta Wikstrom is 55, widowed, and newly home to run the Ephraim Harbor library. The whole town, standing on the breakwater, agrees Russ Heimerl drove onto rotten ice drunk in 1987. Then the hot flashes move into her hands, the water in the old baptismal font in the library basement goes still, and it shows her two sets of headlights on the ice and a woman singing a Lenten hymn. An owl on the steeple tells her she has been slow about it.
Scrying shows but never names. The proof has to come from the archive, the choir files and the questions nobody wants asked. And Hal Brecht, the retired Coast Guard officer who raised the car, knows exactly what ice does to evidence. He believes her. He may not forgive where the truth leads.
A complete, clean cozy mystery with a fair-play puzzle, an owl who doesn't need a name, a small-town Circle of witches, and a grown man worth staying for.
Perfect for fans of Robyn Peterman and Michelle M. Pillow.
