Crime and Poetry #1, in the Magical Bookshop Mystery series, by Amanda Flower

There’s something simply magical about Charming Books. More than the magical charm of the village where it’s nestled – Cascade Springs, NY. More than the charm of its slightly eccentric owner – Daisy Waverly. Or of the granddaughter she tricked into returning home – Violet. No, at Charming Books, the books choose their buyers…and even have the ability - with help - to predict death and identify murderers. It’s a good thing…because there’s a murder to be solved!

▼▲

From the national bestselling author of the Amish Quilt Shop Mysteries comes the first charming caper in the Magical Bookshop Mystery series.

Rushing home to sit by her ailing grandmother’s bedside, Violet Waverly is shocked to find Grandma Daisy the picture of perfect health. Violet doesn’t need to read between the lines: her grandma wants Violet back home and working in her magical store, Charming Books. It’s where the perfect book tends to fly off the shelf and pick you...

Violet has every intention to hightail it back to Chicago, but then a dead man is discovered clutching a volume of Emily Dickinson’s poems from Grandma Daisy’s shop. The victim is Benedict Raisin, who recently put Grandma Daisy in his will, making her a prime suspect. Now, with the help of a tuxedo cat named Emerson, Violet will have to find a killer to keep Grandma from getting booked for good...
