MAPLE?Wanda practices witchcraft and owns a magic supply shop in Pumpkintown. She drinks, dances, and has a weakness for attractive men. She's also a promising investigator.

Wanda has helped to solve many crimes but she never expected her dear friend, Mr. Maple, to be found dead. Teaming up with Pumpkintown's lead inspector, Sam Shamrock, Wanda will not rest until she discovers the identity of the murderer. Evil Half-Gnomes, dangerous Wood Trolls, and cheating boyfriends will make solving this mystery difficult. Wanda doesn't want to rely on magic but she will cast spells and contact the spirit world if necessary. Troublesome twin sisters, a crazy great-aunt, and a spoiled Siberian cat with a smart mouth all guarantee that Wanda's life remains full of surprises.
