Doom and Broom

Wicked Witches of Coventry Series, Book 2

By: Sara Bourgeois

Narrated by: Rebecca Mitchell

When Brighton Longfield discovers her treasured protection amulet is missing, she finds a note in its place from Langoria Skeenbauer telling her that Tuttlesmiths are not welcome in Coventry.

Brighton confronts the woman in the town square with a crowd of Coventry's residents watching. Of course, Langoria Skeenbauer is one of the town's most upstanding citizens, so people assume she's innocent and Brighton is nuts. When Langoria is found dead in the cemetery across from Hangman's House, Brighton becomes a suspect.

Brighton is the one who discovers the body, and even Thorn is suspicious. But Brighton's not the only one in town who wanted Langoria dead - while Langoria was seen as a model citizen by many, she'd actually been cruel to many of the witches in Coventry who don't bear the Skeenbauer name. There are quite a few human residents who aren't a big fan either. To clear her name, Brighton's going to need to sweep away all of the lies and misunderstandings that surround the suspicious death.

With her best friend Annika and her familiar Meri on her side, she's prepared to do whatever it takes to catch the real murderer. She's desperate to clear her name and fix her relationship with Thorn, but will her quest lead her right into a killer's snare?

Warm characters withput being over the top

Not really innovative but a pleasant listen. Will get the next books. When i buy this genre i just want to be relaxed.

Another winner

Sara Bourgeois continues the storyline with more characters development. The story remains original. Rebecca Mitchell gives a wonderful performance as she gives life to the story. I only wish the stories were longer. And it’s on to book three.

It was ok

The overall book is good, but the culprits so far haven’t really gotten good explanations on why they killed the people they killed and some parts of the story feel rushed. I wish there were more details on why the culprits decided to kill.

Series isnt too bad

Fun paranormal cozy mystery. This was a quick and easy listen. Will be moving onto book 3 😊

A Protection Amulet Stolen!

I don't agree with Lynn's review, I've listened to many Audible books over the years and the reader, Rebecca Mitchell, does a nice job with this series.

A whirling of events in Coventry start when Brighton Longfield has her protection amulet stolen! However, in solving this mystery, Brighton comes across as being her worst enemy at times. For goodness sake for a divorced woman who was married before, you would think she would have more experience and exercise better judgment and not have such ridiculous thoughts. She thinks like a teenager who operates with an under-developed brain! Instead of her neurons connecting in a strath path, hers act more like worms squirming all over the place.

The listener does have to try to not let their exasperation exercised with Brighton's downright stupidity get in the way. Some interesting stuff goes on. That withstanding, it's a cute story, though, light and fun read.
