Bay Winchester is having a tough week.
As the local editor of Hemlock Cove’s only newspaper, she just happens to be present when a body is found in an area corn maze. To make matters worse, the police believe the murder may have something to do with the occult.
This wouldn’t be a problem for a normal reporter, but since Bay is descended from a well-known line of actual witches, the town is understandably on edge.
Between the suspicious townspeople, the befuddled police presence and that random hot biker guy that may or may not have something to do with the murder — Bay has her hands full.
When you add the typical family problems, multiplying ghosts — and one monster of a zit that she’s sure came from her aunt’s curse — Bay is just struggling to make it through the week.
Of course, when the killer sets his sights on Bay, things could get a whole lot worse.
Note: These books are full of sarcasm and are a little bit snarky — so read only if you like to laugh and you aren’t easily offended. This is the first book in the Wicked Witches of the Midwest mystery series.

Really fun read! I loved this story for many reasons. First, I spent a lot of time laughing. Second, the characters were real characters, if you catch my meaning;) And there was enough magic and ghosts to hold my interests. If you want a well written book that will make you laugh and keep you “turning” pages, get this book!
Bewitching and Funny as Hell I love Lee’s latest series: Here, a trio of cousins, who happen to be witches, live in the magical(ly marketed) town of Hemlock Cove. Bay works for the local paper, and what was to be the top story for the week — the new corn maze (yup, it’s that small of a town) — is trumped by a gruesome murder. It’s up to Bay and her cousins (with the help of her very eccentric and super hilarious aunts — you seriously have to meet Aunt Tillie) to solve the mystery.
