The Case of The Endangered Witch (Magic Investigations Society
Archive Book 1) by H.B. Chapman
Blurb:
One Friday night in the city of Melbourne, aspiring
concert pianist Ella Wentworth mesmerizes an audience of eight hundred people.
Yet she’s distraught; she missed a note, and her perfectionism consumes her.
Moments later, her hair turns arctic white, and her world descends into
Disneyesque hallucinations, where everyday objects appear to sparkle, levitate,
and...flash mob.
Ella is referred to Dr Kendra Hamilton, who
specialises in treatment for “post-traumatic stress in cases of trauma-induced
spontaneous hair depigmentation.” But Dr Kendra’s tennis player grip and
capacity to draw bolts of energy from the sky lead Ella to believe there’s more
to this psychiatrist’s credentials than MD. What does this mental health
professional mean by “you’re a witch?”
Unfortunately, everyone but Ella is frothing about
her rare magic skills, and soon she becomes the target of nefarious beings. And
all this magical hoo-ha unfolds behind the backs of her husband and daughter.
Max is Ella’s sweetheart whom she would never (normally) lie to. But any day
now, she’ll confess she’s a witch. Right? Right?
My review:
The Case of The Endangered Witch is a delightful tale of a
concert pianist who discovers she is a witch and coming into her gifts is
messing with her life. I loved that Ella is in love with her husband and
daughter. She tries to keep them from the craziness that has become her life. This
is a well written tapestry of magic and mystery mixed with a healthy dose of
humor.
