Whispers of the Magical Forest

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to sipping merlot... surprise! The Backside of Forty uncorked a peaceful wine-tasting weekend only to be poured into a multi-car pileup in a blizzard. So much for a relaxing girlfriends' getaway...

Before you can say "cabernet", Fiona, Violet, and Aislinn stumble upon a corpse buried in the snow, and it's buzzing with that unmistakable eau de supernatural. Turns out, the scenic village is more crime scene than picture postcard, with ritualistic killings that make ordinary weekend plans look downright boring.

The local mundie police think they can actually handle this mess, but spoiler alert: they can't. It's up to the coven, armed with trusty magic (and a bottle opener or two), to locate the killer before any more bodies -- supernatural or otherwise -- pile up.

That will be easier said than done one a dark-magic-loving shifter decides to kidnap Aislinn and hide her away deep in the forest. The battle to save her just might push these magical midlife mamas over the edge, nearly wrecking their favorite boots in the process.

Once they're out of the woods (literally), a new discovery leaves the girls aghast, and as the last of the snow settles, the real battle is just beginning. And in this magical world, survival is never the finish line. It's just the signal for the next round of chaos to start. Cheers to that, right?
