A Witch City Mystery, Book 13

By: Carol J. Perry

Narrated by: C.S.E. Cooney

Fans of Amanda Flower and Heather Blake will delight in this latest mystery in the Witch City series, featuring Lee Barrett, program director for Salem, Massachusetts's, local station, WICH-TV, and a cast of colorful characters and sleuthing helpers—including her detective sergeant husband, and a clairvoyant cat, O'Ryan.

Just married, Lee and her husband, Detective Sergeant Pete Mondello, are settling into their new home when Lee is dubbed WICH-TV's new "Historical Documentary Chief Executive." Her first subject is the brand-new Salem International Museum, slated to be a location for traveling blockbuster exhibits, starting with "Seafaring New England." From research to collecting artifacts of Salem's long-ago days as a shipping capital, the project is a challenge—but when the driver of a truckload of antiquities turns up dead under a pile of fall leaves, it's not quite the kind of challenge Lee expected . . .

Soon, Lee and Pete are dredging up clues along with a hardy crew of helpers, including Lee's librarian aunt, Ibby, Lee's best friend and practicing witch, River North—and of course the clairvoyant cat, O'Ryan. But when a ship model in the exhibit's collection appears to be haunted, Lee will have to dive into her own treasure trove of psychic gifts before a killer comes to the surface to strike again . . .

Another great Witch City Mystery

I was happy that this storyline is continuing. I liked the mystery and the resolution. All the characters are great. Fantastic writing. Personal preferences: I did finally realize that one of the things that I believe wasn't working as well is that the narrator tends to make the characters sound annoyed frequently. If I were reading the book myself instead of the audiobook, some of the lines might have been just comments and maybe they weren't meant to sound like the character was annoyed. I am also still bummed about Lee's gift. She still doesn't like it. I think her "gift" only appeared once or twice in this book. And River was hardly in it (another character I love). So there wasn't as much paranormal as I would have liked. I still love these books and will continue the series. They are worth getting.

Twisted plot

Along with other books by this author, she tells a great story, however, this one didn’t quite grab me like her previous stories. Still very entertaining though.

Excellent writing & narration 5/5

Great read/listen. You will totally enjoy this book (and all of the “Witch City Mystery books”)
C.S.E. Cooney—excellent narration 👍🏻📚

Another wonderful adventure

I always look forward to another adventure with Lee, Aunt Ibby, Orion and Pete so knew that I had to get this book. I very much enjoyed the mystery and adventure.
