A quickly approaching wedding, flower problems, a dangerous missing magical artifact, and a Witches' Council full scale Obligation to boot? I just might not survive this one...
When I got the call from Aunt Opal asking me to pinch-hit for her on an investigation, how could I refuse? Opal didn't ask for many favors, and when she did, well the answer would always be yes. It's what family does.
The reason she needed a pinch-hitter in the first place? Well, the Witches' Council had ordered a full scale Obligation. Kind of the council's version of a trial. And Opal, Goddess bless her, had been chosen as one of the peers to hear the accused's case.
Oh, and the accused? None other than Jack Watson. Remember him? The gentleman thief that is so close to my Uncle Merlin and my half-brother? Yup. That Jack Watson. And that closeness to the menfolk of my family was about to reach out and bite them right in their hienies.
The trouble was... that was only the beginning of a very rough week. It kind of went downhill from there.
Fast.
