Ancient curses, dark magic, and just enough whiskey to take the edge off. Welcome to The Carolina Files, an urban fantasy meets cozy horror adventure series. In movies, witches have fun and magic is easy. Whisper a spell, fire up a candle or two, then flutter your eyelashes at some sexy beast waiting in the wings. Bingo. Problem solved. Honey, that's not my life. Conjuring skills? Not even. Though I did once summon a pretty magnificent herd of frogs. My lovelife? The only sexy beast waiting for me is the kind that rips your eyeballs out. My family, the Whitlows, are basically the supernatural Corleones of the Carolinas. Think The Godfather, only witchy. We run a magical safe house disguised as a quaint inn, backed by more old money than sense. My sisters are more likely to start an apocalypse than prevent one. So who gets stuck with the messes - both magical and mundane? That would be me, Tula Whitlow, because I'm just competent enough to be useful and way too lazy to argue. Now I have an FBI agent on my doorstep with a case way above my pay grade. An upscale vineyard with secrets darker than my Aunt Ruby's magic. Ancient curses, old gods, and the kind of chaos that makes me want to quit and move to Florida. Well, maybe not Florida, but you get the idea. Look, I know what you're thinking - why not call in the magical equivalent of SWAT? Trust me, in this town, my family IS the nuclear option. Heaven help us all. First in the wickedly funny Carolina Files series, perfect for fans of the hit TV shows Supernatural and Buffy the Vampire Slayer and books from Grady Hendrix, Seanan McGuire, T.Kingfisher, Darynda Jones, and Christopher Moore.
