Curses Abound (Silver Screen Coven Series Book 3)

Four friends with magical abilities, Annabelle, Mila, Velma, and Mae, work as assistants in various departments at 1930s era MGM Studios. After a commissary employee curses the studio while being fired, a number of strange and tragic events happen. From mysterious animals roaming the studio to unexpected deaths, everyone is on edge, believing in the curse. While the publicity department head hires a psychic to clear the curse, the friends do their best to get to the bottom of the mystery. With the help of their new familiars and a spell book with a mind of its own, the gals have a wild romp around the studio and 1930s LA.

Curses Abound is the third book in the Hollywood Coven series, but works quite well as a standalone story. The action is lively and nicely paced with dialogue straight from the Golden Age of Hollywood. With judicious sprinkling of famous celebrities and their scandals, the studio environment comes alive. The main characters are nicely fleshed out with complimentary talents and positions at the studio. The antics of their familiars, a bat, a blackbird, a cat, and a fox, add to quirkiness of the story. I look forward to more stories about this charming coven.
