The Witch is in the Details

By: Constance Barker

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Murder by Voodoo Dolls?

Nann calls them poppets, but the rest of the town calls them voodoo dolls and they keep popping up around dead people. The mill's board has come together to address whether they will accept the town's buy out program and reopen the mill. Lakeshore Properties continues to seethe, wanting the property for their own gain. And Magic seems to swirl around the entire town. Zinna has worked hard to create a program to show the board members how reopening the plant via a worker buy out would benefit the company and the town. But a board member drops dead before revealing a decision and his notes mysteriously go missing. Deputy Keith turns up at Nann's bookstore asking questions regarding the voodoo dolls. Since Nann has an occult section in her bookstore and Aunt Nancy was either bonkers or a witch, maybe Nann has the goods on what's going on. Of course, Nann must remain unassuming. No need to let the handsome deputy in on her secrets. That is, until Tink is framed when a slew of poppets are found in her garage. When more people end up dead with voodoo dolls attached, Nann and Pokey, her pig familiar, must figure out if Aunt Nancy has any documents that may lead to a killer.

I couldn't make it..

I listened to chapter 4 and I couldn't make it past the virtual voice. I couldn't tell who was speaking- no change in the voice. It was difficult to pay attention and I found myself thinking about other things. When I realized I wasn't payed attention, I had no clue what was going on. If you asked me what the story was about, I could not tell you. Virtual voices just aren't working in this arena.
