Rosemary Edghill's Bast (a.k.a. Karen Hightower) is a modern-day witch and amateur detective whose investigations lead her through the colorful and exotic world of New York's occult underground. In Book of Moons, a series of puzzling thefts serves as a prelude to a shocking murder whose origins lurk centuries in the past. Every witch has a Book of Shadows: part recipe book, part liturgy, and part diary. Now someone is looking for one very odd, very special Book--and is willing to kill for it. Bast has few suspects and fewer clues, but where there's a witch, there's a way. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Bast is back, in The Bowl of Night! The one-of-a-kind heroine from Edghill's two previous mysteries, Speak Daggers to Her and Book of Moons, returns in a bewitching new mystery set in the world of today's New Age community. Hallowfest, an outdoor pagan festival held every October in upstate New York, attracts all kinds of people, not to mention a few curious onlookers and the occasional protester. But, when a local resident is mysteriously murdered, Bast (a.k.a. Karen Hightower) finds that her suspects include several modern-day witches, an enigmatic magician, a gun-toting survivalist, a dominatrix, and incorrigible ex-boyfriend, and even a few would-be Klingons. Can Bast discover which witch dunit-before the entire festival falls under a cloud of suspicion?
