  Life just won’t settle down for Pepper Dunn. The Head Witch Order has arrived with one mission—secure Pepper’s powers for themselves at any cost.  
  The entire Craple household is on deck to save Pepper. Grandma Betty has formed her own resistance, and even though they’re groaning about it, Amelia and Cordelia jump in to assist her.  
  In order for Pepper to fight the Order successfully, she must tap the very depths of her power. But Pepper also needs allies.  
  Pepper thinks she’s found one within the Order’s very ranks. But when her ally is murdered, Pepper herself looks guilty of the crime.  
  There’s no denying Pepper’s got a lot on her plate—learn her magic, prove she isn’t the killer and oh yes, finally give Axel an answer to his proposal.  
  The last should be the easiest one, but Rufus Mayes is in town to help and Pepper’s tangled feelings about Rufus often get in her way.  
  But there’s no time for confusion—if Pepper wants to be free of the Order, she must magically defeat the witch in charge.  
  Yet she must also uncover a killer. Can Pepper do it all? Face down the Order and solve a murder without getting herself killed in the process? Will she survive long enough to give Axel an answer? Can she finally put the lingering tension between her and Rufus to rest?  
  And most importantly, will Betty’s resistance cripple the Order’s ranks or cause more trouble for Pepper and the gang?

  Mia Strauss is trying to be a good mother. She’s worked hard to build a stable life since losing her memory at eighteen when an assailant pushed her from the third-story landing of her parents’ gold coast mansion. But lately, Mia is losing control and feels she’s being watched wherever she goes. She is taking more and more of her prescription drugs to quiet the rising panic and anxiety. But when her husband, Alexander, comes home to find her face down on their living room floor, she’s at risk of losing her girls. 
  Alexander Strauss, neuropsychologist and professor at Columbia University, can no longer trust his wife. Her behavior and moods have grown evermore erratic. She takes plenty of medication but doesn’t make any progress. She has become a danger to herself, and their children. It is believed that Mia will never be able to remember, but Alexander has other ideas. Based on her recent brain images, Alexander is confident Mia’s continued amnesia is psychological. She doesn’t want to remember. He gives her an ultimatum, either she gets real help, or he’ll leave her and take the girls. 
  Desperate to save her marriage and keep her family, Mia signs up for a therapy she’s never tried—an experimental treatment that hypothesizes psilocybin may help traumatized patients process and recover their forgotten lives. But as Mia makes progress and her history begins to take shape, it becomes apparent that those closest to Mia never want her to remember what happened that night. 
  And they’ll do whatever it takes to stop the truth from being uncovered.

  To Miami Jones, fishing is a pastime best done with a cooler of beer and low expectations. So when a cable TV personality hires him to investigate irregularities in a competitive fishing tournament in Spanish Wells, Bahamas, Jones is less than enthusiastic. 
  He expects to find a bunch of old geezers kicking back with lazy rods and a bucket of worms. What he finds is a high stakes and big money game, where winning is measured not in inches and pounds but in views and sponsorship deals. 
  Before he knows it Jones finds himself in over his head, alone and with clues that all point in the wrong direction. To get himself out of this mess, he'll not only have to solve this mystery but also a murder from decades ago that still casts a shadow across this laid-back paradise.
