A quaint charity tea party at the infamous Hollowcrest Manor takes a wickedly enchanting turn when amateur Octavia Grimstone and her friends are entrapped in a curse. They begin regressing in age… that’s not so bad for midlife witches, right? Yet the change is rapid and perhaps never-ending, which means sooner rather than later, they will no longer exist. Their only chance? Solving an alleged old murder case that’s been whispering through the cobwebbed halls of the manor for years. One that might be related to the death of Octavia’s late husband. With her teaching days behind her and a career as a cozy mystery author and bookstore co-owner proving more dangerous than expected, Octavia’s flair for unraveling mysteries is sharply tested. Alongside her, the ever-snarky feline familiar Elzadora and the attractive Cassius Morgenthrall, a witch doctor whose steady hand in magic and medicine is suddenly vital, dive into the heart of the manor’s supernatural secrets. Beneath the manor’s gilded surface, the tea party guests are not just a glittering array of Grimstone Grove’s elite but a collection of suspects with motives as murky as the manor’s hidden passageways. As the grandfather clock runs backward, they must sift through enchantments and echoes of forbidden lore to piece together the motive behind the murders. Maneuvering through a tangle of high society’s false courtesies and her own tangled emotions regarding her late husband’s death, Octavia’s resolve is challenged. They have until sunrise to unmask the killer and halt the effects when the curse draws near.
