Charmed Bones

The small town of Zinnia, Mississippi, faces an uproar when three sisters, Faith, Hope, and Charity, announce plans to open a Wiccan boarding school. Narrator Kate Forbes aptly voices private detective Sarah Booth's first-person narration. Sarah is hired to investigate the self-professed witches on behalf of a client. Then two people connected to the school are murdered. The faces of their dead bodies are frozen in horror. Forbes ratchets up the intensity of the audiobook and the creepiness of the story, while also building the heat between Sarah and Sheriff Coleman, who are continually thwarted in their attempts to make love. With the shocking twist at the conclusion, Forbes entices the listeners all the more. V.M.G. � AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
