Katie Penryn

The Witch who Couldn't Spell Katie Penryn

Penzi's a new witch in a new town.




Her long-lost mother's been locked up for murder.




What should she do? Find the real killer?




So far, Penzi's done well. Despite her reading disability, she's qualified as a lawyer in London and raised her two brothers on her own. She's moved the family to Beaucoup-sur-Mer in south-west France only to have her mother arrested for murder. She may be clever, but she doesn't have the skills to hunt down a murderer.




True Penzi's a white witch, so she could use magic, and she does have her mother's Book of Spells, but she's hit a stumbling block. Try as she may, Penzi cannot decipher the grimoire's medieval script. She needs help desperately if she's to save her mother from a life in prison.




Will the High Council of the Guild of White Witches listen to her plea and allow her an assistant in time to free her mother? An assistant with supernatural powers of his own?




In a story featuring witches, magic, and talking cats and dogs, all spiced up with a dollop of danger, will Penzi and Felix win the good fight against evil in the small French seaside town of Beaucoup-sur-Mer?
