Magic can rewrite reality. But it can't rewrite the truth.
After decades of hiding her magic, Fiona Cross has found refuge in Everveil, a hidden sanctuary where witches live openly and magic is woven into everyday life.
Determined not to repeat the mistake that cost her everything, Fiona refuses to meddle until...
... a beloved children's author, Pearl Bell, is accused of plagiarizing a book she swears she dreamed up herself. And Fiona can't ignore a friend in need.
With a found family of witches at her side-a hedge witch who talks to her garden, a baker whose pastries reveal hidden truths, and a clairtangent who reads the memories trapped inside objects-Fiona sets out to clear the author's name.
But whoever's behind Pearl's ruined reputation isn't finished. And their next victim may lose far more than a story.
Along the way, every clue brings Fiona closer to the kind of sisterhood she's never allowed herself to have.
Just when she gets a handle on the case, the investigative journalist who once came dangerously close to uncovering Fiona's biggest secret, walks back into her life and starts asking questions that could ruin everything.
Word Thieves is Book One of The Witches of Everveil series, a spin-off of the Midlife is Magic cozy mystery series.
Perfect for readers who love the warmth and camaraderie of The Thursday Murder Club, the enchanting atmosphere of Practical Magic, found-family sisterhoods, clever mysteries, magical communities, second-chance romances, and midlife heroines discovering it's never too late for a fresh start.
