Putting on the Witch (Retired Witches Mysteries) Cozy Mystery 3rd in Series Berkley (October 4, 2016) Mass Market Paperback: 304 pages ISBN-13: 978-0425268278 E-Book - ASIN: B01AHKXHTS

Synopsis

With their coven’s spell book still missing, Molly and Elsie—along with their ghostly friend Olivia, her daughter Dorothy, and her boyfriend Brian—are all on edge, especially now that Dorothy’s infamously wicked father is back in the picture. So when they receive an invitation to an exclusive Witches Ball, the ladies jump at the chance to dress up and have some fun.

The castle locale is spectacular and the party is hopping, but the festivities come to a swift end when a member of the Grand Council of Witches is murdered. With the whole place on lock down, the coven is determined to find the cunning killer, even with an angry council and a real Spanish Inquisitor breathing down their necks...

My review :
This was a very interesting and sad book for me. Sad because of the author's, and interesting because of the plot. I really liked the spell book being stolen. As a fan of Charmed, the television series, I know that witches need their spell book to find the right spell. Especially with so many witches in he coven, their book was needed by many and it was special to them. I really liked reading about the ball, and I wished that I could join them! Excerpt for the whole dead body part. I was surprised by the ending, and thought that it was a good fit for the book and series. I am giving this book a 5/5. All opinions are my own.
