Witch Way to Amethyst Bay? Catherine Wright

The three Bell sisters -- Holli Jayne, Gemini Katherine, and Poppy Lupine -- grew up in bucolic Amethyst Bay, Oregon, beside the Columbia River, under the bemused eye of their flamboyant Aunt Dorte, who has a knack (or is it a power?) for turning up at the right time in the right places. The women have become pillars of their town: business owners and social mavens, all with a touch of seeming serendipity and a lot of great food. Fortunately, they love to share recipes. But Amethyst Bay's tranquil surface is roiled when the girlfriend of the ill-tempered cheese shop owner turns up dead, and telltale signs point to one of the Bells. With the help of Dorte, handsome Sheriff Comini, and the strange, eccentric Paganel sisters, the Bells sift through the clues to find the killer. But could their hippie-entrepreneur and legendary paramour father, Hollister, be connected somehow to the murders, or is his long-ago disappearance into the grand river still Amethyst Bay's biggest mystery?"
