Fishing & Forgery

Enjoy this witty, small-town paranormal, cozy mystery by award-winning and bestselling author Lucinda Race.

Welcome to Pembroke Cove, where witches and murders are multiplying...

A lazy Sunday afternoon on her fiancé's fishing boat in the small town of Pembroke Cove is the perfect way for bookstore owner and witch Lily Michaels to relax and escape the whirlwind of planning their wedding, which is only a month away. Lily's only pretending to try to catch dinner, but when she reels in a satchel stuffed with cash, Lily and her fiancé, Gage Erikson-a.k.a. Detective Cutie-are hooked into a new mystery.

Gage learned a long time ago that the only way to keep his puzzle-loving fiancé safe is to let her dive headfirst into his cases with him. But while he's in the police station setting the investigation of the mysterious moolah in motion, Lily stumbles over a dead body just outside the door.

Are the cases connected? Is the cash stolen or counterfeit? The dead man's distraught widow positively identifies the body...but when Gage and Lily learn the woman faked her identity. What else is she hiding? While finalizing plans to marry her catch of a lifetime, it will take all of Lily's magical skills to help Gage fish out the truth.

Fishing & Forgery is the eleventh novel in the A Book Store Cozy Mystery Series; although each book can be read as a standalone, it is best to read them in order. It is a humorous, small-town, cozy mystery that guarantees the culprit is caught. Happy reading!
