Book Synopsis
Two witchy sisters find themselves framed for the disappearance of their elderly client's substantial trust after her sudden death--from the New York Times bestselling author of Payback's a Witch and the critically-acclaimed author of All Dressed Up.
As descendants of one of the original Salem Witch Trial victims, Tori and Cassie Bishop's occult credentials are strong . . . but a trickle of tarot readings won't pay the bills, and now they're facing eviction. When they're offered a massive sum to play "witches in residence" to an elderly widow at her secluded Berkshires mansion, it feels like fate.
But from the minute they arrive at the opulent country estate it's clear: they've been dropped into a far more dangerous game than their smoke and mirrors can save them from.
The widow, Rose, is in her final days and desperate for the sisters to help with her unresolved spiritual needs before she passes. Her skeptical family and staff, however, are less enthusiastic about the sisters' presence--with the exception of Rose's nurse and her beloved great-nephew, who find themselves inexplicably drawn to Cassie and Tori.
Thrown into a viper's nest of competing motives and impenetrable intrigues, the sisters do their best to help Rose. But after Rose's sudden death, millions of dollars disappear from the estate overnight, and Tori and Cassie quickly become the prime suspects. Someone in the house has framed the Bishop sisters, and in order to clear their names, the two must rely on their powers--magical or otherwise--to unravel the toxic family's tangled web of greed, resentment, and deceit. If they don't, Rose won't be the only victim at Berwyn House. . . .
