Amazon Description:

Driving full-steam-ahead with her life after the un-expected death of her husband, Annie Szabo was not planning on veering off course again. But her late husband’s family, an outrageous and proud clan of Gypsies, has other plans. When Annie’s oldest friend Jerry turns up dead, she is plunged back into the family she once tried to leave behind. Suspecting murder, Annie is forced to form an alliance with Madame Mina, her stubborn and powerful mother- in-law, the heart of the Szabo family tree. Determined to catch Jerry’s killer, the two women must unlock the pattern of a tapestry wild with lawyers, criminals, magic, and even more death. One thing is certain-to catch a killer with a hidden agenda, Annie and Mina must use all of their resources: ancient curses, a talent for petty theft, bizarre love magic, a Gypsy PI, and a strong sense of humor. Rising from the center of this mayhem is a strange Romani man, the Hummingbird Wizard. Appearing in Annie’s life, and in Annie’s bed, he could prove to be the only one to help her bring the scattered pieces of her life and community together. Or, he could tear it apart forever in a wake of passion and horrible revenge. Sexy, witty, suspenseful, and wildly original, Meredith Blevins paints a portrait of a vibrant family, led by two bold women who refuse to let a little homicide ruin their enjoyment of life.
