Torie Bliss thought that being over forty and having your husband dump you over your favorite meal would be rock bottom. Then she learned that the perfect life he had created for them was built on a foundation of lies. A very public fall from grace leaves her penniless and homeless. Thinking she had nothing else to lose, she decides to move in with her estranged mother in a picturesque town in the mountains of North Carolina. Only to discover that her mother is quite the witch. Literally. And so is Torie. They are from a line of witches who develop their magic after the age of forty. As if hot flashes and night sweats weren't enough, she now has to contend with wild magic that she has no idea how to control. But she must learn to tap into her strange new powers to help her new friends solve a terrifying mystery. Someone is killing off shifters in the sleepy town of Singing Falls, and if Torie can't get her act together, she just may be next on the supernatural serial killer's list. Can Torie let go of her past in order to embrace her new future?
