Book Reveiw: A Charmed Death

TitleA Charmed Death (Bewitching Mysteries, No. 2)

Second in the series about Maggie O'Neill, a young woman who works in a collectibles shop called Enchantments. Maggie's boss, Liss, tells her from the first that she is a witch. Maggie, who has strugled with being Catholic, likes Liss very much and begins to dsicover her own psychic powers and to understand witches aren't all bad, espcially as she meets others like Liss.

In this book a young woman is murdered, and it really shakes up the small town in Inidana that Maggie lives in. On the day she died, Amanda had bought a clock in Enchantments, so Maggie is drawn into the case.

I really like the characters in this series, but I did think there was a plot flaw in this book. Maggie does something that seems to not make much sense, and because of ti she winds up in danger in the climactic scene. In spite of that I enjoyed the book.
