This starts out a bit slow (there is the reminder of Katie's move, magical abilities, etc). It does pick up. Katie's bakery is catering an author signing at the bookstore next door. This takes a turn when the author, a bit of a "relationship guru," is murdered.
Katie's familiar, Mungo, used to belong to someone else. It turns out he belonged to another witch and left her after she gave up being a witch. Angie, the ex-witch, is accused of murder and Mungo lets Katie know she didn't do it. So, it's up to Katie to figure out who the guilty party is, because, of course, the police are only focused on Angie.
Katie does get a new friend/ally with Angie. I like how Katie has grown into her abilities. They are a part of her and she accepts them and as a result is stronger. Her relationship with Declan changes in this and they go to the next level. She also has realizations about Steve. Angie might be a possible love interest for him (we will have to see). Anyway, murder solved and all nicely tied up.
