Wish Management - River Penumbra

Some wishes are simple. A confidence boost. A nudge toward love. A cat that stops scratching the furniture. (Artemis handled that one personally. He has opinions about cats.)

But when fairy godmother Grace Thornfield is hired as a "wellness consultant" for a troubled corporate office, nothing about the job is simple. Twelve exhausted employees. A building on a ley line junction with a furious brownie in the basement. A ley line that someone is deliberately corrupting. And a financial crime hiding behind the magical chaos.

Grace can see what's really wrong - the invisible hexes draining the staff, the receptionist who's about to make a wish that could trap her in the building forever, the project manager who's accidentally absorbing time itself. But fixing it means unravelling a conspiracy that's both magical and criminal, and the people behind it are getting ready to run.

She has two weeks. A hedge witch with a hammer. A brownie with a grudge. A harbour master with shipping manifests. And a cat who is never, ever wrong about anything and will tell you so at length.

The clock is ticking. All of them are.

Wish Management is the fifth book in The Fairy Godmother Detective Agency, a paranormal cozy mystery series set in coastal Maine. Complete mystery - no cliffhangers.
