When the going gets tough... Private investigator, Jill Gooder, has been hired to find a serial killer because, as usual, the police can't buy a clue. Jill, the not so proud owner of a crazy, one-eyed cat, probably can't expect too much help from her PA/Secretary, Mrs V, who spends all day knitting. And just in case all of that wasn't bad enough, Jill's just about to discover she's a witch. ...break out the custard creams.

I loved many parts of this books, but was a bit perplexed by other parts. 

Jill's reaction to discovering magic is perfection. One of the best written normal becomes witch sequences I've read in a cozy mystery. Very much how I would imagine most would react the the strange events that are happening to her. 

Overall I enjoyed the layout of the mystery, but felt that Jill was a very not on top of her job PI. I guess she did just find out she was a witch but it just wasn't as believable how little work she put in on the case. There were also strange event sequences happening, where she'd have a tense confrontation scene, and then we'd switch to a hang out scene. At one point I flipped back thinking I missed a chapter because there was no explanation to how she left a confrontation. This series also seems to be playing the police are idiots trope, but not fully sure yet. 

I did enjoy the way the magic worked in this world, very unique and look forward to learning more about her witch family.
