I like how the story gives you just the right amount of back story so that if you were joining the series at this book, you would be able to follow along:

In this eighth book of A Wishcraft Mystery series, the tale begins in the Enchanted Village, a tourist-themed neighborhood of Salem, Massachusetts. I enjoy these books because the story telling is clever, characters are interesting and the whodunit is not easy to figure out until the very end. I have read a handful of books by this author and have always enjoyed her stories… and this book is no exception. To Catch a Witch is book 8 in the A Wishcraft Mystery series by Heather Blake. It will take the help from friends, family, and a little bit of magic for Darcy to stop a stone-cold killer from striking again. Just when Darcy is convinced she’s hit a dead end in the case, a startling burglary and the hunt for Abby’s elusive ex send Darcy down a dark, dangerous trail. As Darcy digs deeper, she uncovers complicated relationships, a possible embezzlement scheme, and allegations of cheating against a top athlete. And those closest to the woman―her secret fiancé, her roommate, her ex-boyfriend, and her co-workers at Balefire Sports―seem to have plenty to hide too.

As blizzard conditions rage on the morning of the race, Darcy’s main concern is the terrible weather―until Abby goes missing…and is later found dead, buried in the snow.Īs Darcy investigates her friend’s untimely death, she learns that she didn’t really know Abby well at all. When wishcrafter Darcy Merriweather’s personal concierge company is hired by elite runner Abby Stillwell to organize the Wicked Mad Dash, a competition that takes place in the Enchanted Village, Darcy is more than willing to help her friend. Wishcrafter Darcy Merriweather might be a witch with the ability to grant wishes for others, but wishing isn’t going to help her catch a killer…
