Cotton Candy & Cold Cases: An Izzy Cooper Novel
Celeste Osborn is thoroughly unimpressed with her destiny as the next generation of Osborn witches. While her mother, Stella tends to the mishaps on Mystique Island, Celeste dreams of a life beyond wards and spells, preferably one that involves actual fun.
Between surviving her brother Aaron's ridiculous schemes, maintaining her reputation as the girl with the sharpest tongue in town, and pretending she doesn't notice the shadows, Celeste has enough on her plate. The last thing she needs is a killer hunting his prey at the Wonder Wharf Amusement Park.
But when the body of a young woman is discovered, and unsettling incidents start creeping through the island's fog-wrapped streets - disappearances that echo old island wounds, Celeste finds herself drawn into secrets that predate her current problems. As the Leviathan's wooden tracks creak with whispers and the Hall of Mysteries reveals more than optical illusions, the magic she's been avoiding might be the only way to unravel a killer's twisted game.
Sharp-witted, fiercely independent, and reluctantly gifted, Celeste must navigate treacherous waters between teenage rebellion and ancestral responsibility. Because some storms gather slowly, and by the time you see them coming, it's already too late to run.
Long before Izzy Cooper learned to speak for the dead, her mother discovered that ignoring your calling doesn't make it go away. It just makes the reckoning that much darker.
