Witch Dust (The Witch Series, #1)

For Sandra, daughter of illusionists Adam and Ophelia, life's never been run of the mill! But when Adam's wandering eye lights on yet another conquest, Sandra's caught in the reverberations of her parents' acrimonious parting. Coerced into restoring her depressed Mother to the bosom of a family Sandra never knew existed, she's sucked into a situation that, even for her, is a little unnerving.

 

From being without a single relative, she suddenly acquires several she'd rather do without. Ophelia, it appears, has not been entirely honest about any number of things. There's no doubt in Sandra's mind, the sooner she puts as much distance as possible between herself, the newly discovered nearest and dearest with their peculiar tendencies and failing hotel business, the happier she's going to be.

 

There are just a few things to sort first, including a possessed chef; a hanged housemaid; a fly-on-the-wall documentary and a doppelgänger. Things slide swiftly from bad to farce and then get a hell of a lot darker.

 

One minute she's saving the family business the next battling to save their lives. Turns out, some darknesses, once buried are best left undisturbed.

 

"Weirdly wonderful - with the emphasis on wonderful! Marilyn is a fantastic, funny and engaging author. Loved it". ~ Literary Review

"A glorious cornucopia of plot elements from haunted house to magic via disruptive family and uninformed do-gooder. Luckily, our narrator is an inventive and multi- talented problem-solver who leaps from one crisis to the next taking advantage of every bizarre coincidence, surfing across each mounting situation and dodging looming disaster." ~ Lytton A. Grey

About the Author

Marilyn was a regular feature and fiction writer for national magazines when her children were small. Due to a low boredom threshold, she then turned into a serial business launcher.

She’s opened children’s books and toy shops, taught ante-natal classes, set up a specialist travel service for New England, and launched a publishing company, and a copywriting consultancy. She’s blogged for The Telegraph online, created the Vintage Ladies Gift Books; written four Business Books and four Paranormal Thrillers.

She’s been married to her patient husband for more years than he deserves. They have two children, five grandchildren and, somewhat to their surprise, several granddogs.
