✦ Synopsis

Angelica Parker is one busy witch. Between playing fiddle with her band, Blue Mountain Baby, running her organic grocery store, Greenleaf, and healing a mess of maladies for friends and neighbors, her life in misty Mountain Home, North Carolina hums along. With the help of her opinionated familiar, a Russian Blue kitten named Vladimir, and best buddy Willa Kent, Angelica hustles to keep customers and music lovers happy.

And it works!

Until her bandmate, mandolin marvel Maisie Prine, ends up dead. Townsfolk insist that musical ghouls from the mountain’s shadowy dells did the deed. Local teens confess creepy encounters that back up the claims.

Angelica teams up with sexy police sergeant Cary Stewart to suss out the truth behind the tall tales. Together, they uncover a chorus of suspects including a corrupt co-worker, a selfish stepmom, a sticky-fingered student and a frustrated fiancé.

Then, just as the case crescendos to an arrest, the key witness changes her tune.

It’s enough to make you smash a guitar.

Instead, intrepid Angelica picks up the melody. She follows it over hill and dale until she finally finds the wrongdoer, then reveals them in front of the whole town at a high-spirited hootenanny hoedown.

But mysteries remain.

Who’s luring young folks to the mountain’s shadowy glens?

And why do they come home changed?
