A Council of Crows: A Witchy Cozy Mystery

By Flame Angelfish

A councilor is dead behind protected doors, and the Guild wants the matter handled quietly.

Mara Ashwick has spent years building a careful life in Thornwick: practical magic, ordinary work, and a shop where people come for remedies rather than questions. But when a senior Council member is found dead inside Guild Hall, the traces left behind suggest a kind of magic that should not exist-and Mara may be one of the few people able to recognize it.

As the investigation deepens, old records begin pointing toward buried administrative judgments, vanished names, and a hidden pattern reaching further into Thornwick's history than anyone wants to admit. With Finn Rook working from the constabulary side and the Council watching every move, Mara must follow the clues before suspicion closes around her instead.

In Thornwick, secrets are rarely lost.

They are filed away.

A Council of Crows is Book 3 in The Unbound Chronicles, a cozy fantasy mystery series full of practical magic, old records, quiet courage, and small-town secrets. Best read after A Charm for the Dead and What the Veil Keeps.
