The Witch's Will

Lady and her pet cat Lion have settled into their new life in the town of Dark Lake. Well, they've settled in as best they can. A person never gets quite used to the revelation that most everything they knew to be true about the world is a lie. The idea that magic exists and that she's to be trained as a witch is still a very new concept to Lady! Magic isn't all it's cut out to be either. Even witches have to have day jobs. When a reclusive old woman dies of seemingly natural causes, Lady finds her interest piqued. The old woman has stipulated in her will that her considerable fortune will be left to whoever ferrets out her killer. With the help of some friends, Lady is on the case! Never mind that the death looks like natural causes, she could use that money. Besides, if there's one thing she's learned about Dark Lake, it's that almost nothing is ever as it initially seems. Second Volume of the Dark Lake Chronicles Series. Approx. 51,000 words in length. It is a standalone (reading prior or future volumes not required to enjoy the book, no cliffhanger).
