I'm excited to be featuring author Sharon Pape on my blog again and this time she has a new book in her Abracadabra Mystery series.
Time literally flies! I first discovered Sharon Pape through the first book in this series Magick & Mayhem, a 5-star read! (Can you believe that was 2017?!) This book was one of my top reads for 2017.
I also interviewed Sharon about her series and other books in 2019.
I still plan to pick up more books in this series. Will update this post whenever I read more books for Sharon or the Abracadabra Mystery series.

A fatal case of school spirit . . .
Kailyn Wilde, owner of the Abracadabra potion shop, feels some dread anticipating her ten-year high school reunion at the new hotel in New Camel—but it turns out even worse than she feared. Running into her very first boyfriend is pleasant enough.
Chatting with Ashley—who still can’t let go of a tragedy that happened on prom night—is a bit more uncomfortable. But the worst part comes when one of Kailyn’s oldest friends is found dead in the ladies’ room.
Soon this upstate New York town is in an uproar. And with some help from time-traveling wizard Merlin—who has adopted an unusual and alluring creature as his familiar—it’s up to Kailyn to identify the alumnus most likely to commit murder...

About the Author
Sharon Pape describes her writing career as having two stages. Back in the dark ages, before computers were in every household, she had three paranormal books published. The first one was condensed by Redbook Magazine, the first paperback original they had ever condensed. Around the same time, Redbook published her first short story.
Then life brought her an unexpected challenge that went by the name of breast cancer. When her treatment was over, she became a volunteer for the American Cancer Society’s Reach to Recovery Program and went on to be the program’s coordinator for Nassau and Suffolk Counties on Long Island. Several years later, with the help of her surgical oncologist and two other survivors, she started her own not-for-profit organization to provide information and peer support to newly diagnosed breast cancer patients.
Once the organization was running smoothly and didn’t require as much of her time, she returned to her first love – writing. During this second stage of her career, she’s been writing cozy mysteries with a paranormal twist and a splash of humor.

A paranormal, fast-paced, hilarious
cozy mystery, Magick & Mayhem opens with Kailyn Wilde adjusting to
the passing of her mother and grandmother, both witches, and to becoming the
only person in charge of their magick shop "Abracadabra".
Narrated from
Kailyn's first person perspective, the novel is full of humorous comments,
descriptions and events. Set in the small town of New Camel, the mystery is revealed
from the beginning when Kailyn and her aunt Tilly go to see their lawyer and
find him dead.
"In
this town, heavy traffic was five cars lined up at a red light."
One of the funniest and most
entertaining aspects about Magick & Mayhem is Merlin's - yes the great wizard Merlin - adjustment to and discovery of the gadgets of the modern world, from the toilet
to the iPod to pizza.
"The
kettle had gone from whistling to screeching like a banshee, by the time I
plucked it off the stove. Merlin stood in the middle of the kitchen, rotating
like a clumsy ballerina."
