Hexes and Enchantments: Unraveling Secrets in Penn Dutch Country with Author Kirsten Weiss

  1. Hexes and Enchantments: Unraveling Secrets in Penn Dutch Country with Author Kirsten Weiss Teri M Brown 24:46

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Kirsten Weiss, author of the book Legacy of the Witch. Kirsten writes page-turning paranormal and metaphysical mysteries, and now a Tarot guidebook that’s a work of experimental fiction. Her heroes and heroines aren’t perfect, but they’re smart, they struggle, and they succeed. Kirsten writes in a house high on a hill in the Colorado woods and occasionally ventures out for wine and chocolate. Or for a visit to the local pie shop.

Kirsten is best known for her Wits’ End, Perfectly Proper Paranormal Museum, and Tea & Tarot cozy mystery books. So, if you like thoughtful, action-packed mysteries with complicated heroines, just turn the page…

In my book review, I stated Legacy of the Witch is a cozy mystery with a dose of the paranormal – and I must say, I loved the combination. As a disclaimer, I don’t usually read stories about witches and am not a fan of tarot cards, so I wasn’t sure this would be a good fit. Nonetheless, the storyline is fast-paced and the characters are delightful. I’m hooked!

April finds herself in Pennsylvania researching Pennsylvania Dutch crafts in hopes of obtaining a degree she believes she needs to move on with her life. But everything gets turned upside down when she finds a dying man – a man who happens to be her landlord – while jogging.

It’s when she starts seeing ghosts, meets a local witch, joins a mystery school, and learns of ancient hexes that the story really takes off – and leads April on a hunt to find the killer before she turns into the next victim.

And if you are into tarot cards, Kirsten has provided a deck she calls UnTarot to help you with meaning making! It’s a must-read for mystery fans.
