WITCH SUMMER NIGHT'S CREAM by H.Y. Hanna
The Third Bewitched by Chocolate Mystery
Caitlyn Le Fey is still somewhat amazed that she found her biological
family in the Cotswolds village of Tillyhenge. And more amazed that
she's an honest to goodness witch. As Caitlyn hones her chocolate making
skills, as well as her magical ones, she discovers the dead body of a
girl who recently bullied her cousin. Surely, Evie didn't have anything
to do with the other girl's death...even though Evie loudly wished her
dead...and can't always control her magick. Fortunately, there are other
suspects in town including the nefarious chocolate factory owner who
wants to buy the Widow Mags' recipes and the Shakespearean scholar
looking to prove that the events surrounding A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM
were based in fact. But could the murder actually be over a love potion?
H.Y. Hanna treats us to another adventure in the Cotswolds. In WITCH
SUMMER NIGHT'S CREAM we get the delectable addition of Shakespeare. Not
the bard himself, but a nutty professor besotted with THE MIDSUMMER'S
NIGHT DREAM and his belief that Shakespeare created the play using facts
and the very real village of Tillyhenge.
Hanna has a knack for creating laugh out loud scenes, but with people so true the situations are believable, even if outrageous!
The Bewitched by Chocolate series combines one of a kind characters in a bucolic setting with mouthwatering chocolates and a delightful splash of magick. The characters, although zany, are at the center very real and ultimately relateable. While humorous, there is a heartwarming charm to be found in Tillyhenge. H.Y. Hanna has created a depth of feeling within her characters providing readers not only plenty of laughs, but plenty of love as well.
Sounds like fun. I'll have to pick this one up someday.
