The Grimoire Girls

Magic got them into this mess. Now it’s their only way out... Layney’s life looks picture-perfect—respectable husband, sweet teenage daughter, and a five-bedroom home in Cheshire. But when her daughter acts possessed and long-buried memories resurface, Layney realises something is very wrong. Years ago, Gran cast a spell to keep them safe. Now it’s wearing off. When Layney remembers her long-lost Highland heartthrob, one blazing row with her husband is all it takes to set her escape plan in motion. She’s heading to the wilds of Scotland—specifically, the remote Isle of Whye, where Gran once lived. But just before she arrives, shocking news reaches her: Gran has died… and left her a timeworn bookshop, with cosy living quarters above, nestled in a tucked-away village that doesn’t appear on most maps. Also left behind? A murder. And Layney might be the next victim. With the help of a snarky talking cat, Layney must unlock her true power, solve the mystery, and decide if she’s ready to risk her heart again—preferably with a rugged man in a kilt. The Grimoire Girls is a warm, witty mystery packed with second chances, magical mayhem, and midlife reinvention.
