Three ways that Ella’s life is totally messed up:
– Her new coworker is as cranky as he is attractive.
– A mischievous cat has decided she needs a familiar.
– She just found out she’s a witch who can read the emotional hologram of a magical death (and isn’t that a mouthful.)
And oh yeah, there’s five dead bodies, and no one knows how they are connected. Now she’s drawn into a madcap investigation at the casino where she’s managed to snag a job. She must navigate learning her new mage abilities, a topless burlesque show, a jealous girlfriend, gamblers of all varieties, and magical chocolate cake, all while not setting herself or others on fire before the murderer makes her the next victim.
