A Witchs Guide to Magical Innkeeping
It's time to get her spark back . . .
Once, Sera Swan was one of the most powerful witches in Britain - until she sacrificed most of her magic to resurrect her beloved aunt. Now she runs an enchanted inn in Lancashire, where she deals with her quirky guests' shenanigans and longs for a future that seems entirely lost.
Then she meets Luke Larsen, the handsome and icy magical historian who could hold the key to restoring her power. Luke has no interest in the inn's goings-on or letting a certain witch past his walls, so no one is more surprised than he when he agrees to help. Worse, he might actually be thawing.
But as the two work together alongside the family Sera has built, she begins to wonder . . . could love be the best magic of all?
A witch has a second chance to get her magical powers - and her life back on track in this feel-good, whimsical New York Times bestselling cosy fantasy from the author of The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches.

The Mushroom Murders
LONGLISTED FOR THE 2026 INDIE BOOK AWARD FOR NON-FICTIONOn 29 July 2023, Erin Patterson hosted a family lunch at her home in the small regional Victorian town of Leongatha. She had invited her parents-in-law, Don and Gail Patterson, and Gail's sister, Heather Wilkinson, and her husband Ian. Erin made beef Wellington for her guests, individual beef eye fillets covered in mushroom paste, wrapped in pastry. The following day, all four guests were taken to hospital, and Heather, Gail and Don died. Ian Wilkinson barely survived. A toxicologist found traces of the highly poisonous death cap mushroom in the remains of the meal. At first, it appeared to be a dreadful accident. As the police investigation continued, the evidence mounted, seeming to point one way. Yet Erin Patterson spun a web of lies, and steadfastly claimed she did not intend to harm her relatives. Greg Haddrick tells the fascinating inside story of the dramatic murder trial, and the forensic evidence that convinced the jury to convict a suburban mother of a gruesome triple murder. With many details not previously revealed in the media, it is the compelling story of a troubled family, and the world's most poisonous mushroom, which is readily found in parks and gardens.
