The Caretaker by Shawn Mcguire
Dusty Hotte must be cursed. First she lost her job then her house caught fire. On the same day. There are worse things than starting over at fifty, right? But when someone threatens her granddaughter's life, enough is enough. Seeking protection, they move to Dusty's enchanted family farm - filled with elderly witches whose magic has gone a bit wonky, a horde of familiars, and a couple ghosts - in the safe town of Blackwood Grove, Wisconsin, where nothing can harm them. Or so she thought. Minutes after they arrive, a man is found dead in the family diner, and her cousin is wrongfully accused of murder. Things like this don't happen here. Ever. So did Dusty bring the curse with her, or is something more sinister at play? To find out, she must clear her cousin's name and uncover the real killer, even if it means performing magic, something she swore she'd never do again. One part CHARMED, one part THE FACTS OF LIFE, one part THE GOLDEN GIRLS, and a dash of DEXTER. You're going to love>The Witches of Blackwood GroveShawn McGuire is the author of speculative fiction novels for young adults that combine modern settings with a dash of fantasy and magic. She began writing after witnessing the first Star Wars film as a child (episode IV): she couldn't wait for the next one, so she created her own. Those notebooks are unfortunately no longer in existence, but her passion to write remains as strong today as it was then. She grew up in Winona, Minnesota, a lovely Mississippi River town that inspired the location for Sticks and Stones and the upcoming Break My Bones. She relocated to Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Go Pack Go!) after graduating from college and resided there for many years. Shawn enjoys cooking and baking, crafts, interior decorating, and spending time hiking and camping in the magnificent Rocky Mountains with her family when she is not writing or reading.
