The Biscuit Witch
Part One of The MacBrides
A Crossroads novella
Dear Dr. Firth:
I know you are in your cups at this time, drinking, taking pills,
and sleeping under trees, but I have some experience rehabilitating
lost souls in that regard, and so I am enclosing a box of my
biscuits and a cold wrapped container of cream gravy for dessert.
Please eat and write back.
We need a veterinarian of your gumption here in the Crossroads Cove
of Jefferson County.
-Delta Whittlespoon, proprietress of The Crossroads Cafe
Biscuit witches, Mama called them. She'd heard the term as a girl.
She'd inherited that talent. My mother could cast spells on total
strangers simply by setting a plate of her biscuits in front of
them. -Tal MacBride
Welcome back to the Crossroads Cove where new loves, old feuds, and
poignant mysteries will challenge siblings Tal, Gabby, and Gus
MacBride to fight for the home they lost and to discover just how
important their family once was, and still is, to the proud people
of the Appalachian highlands.
Tallulah MacBride hasn't been back to North Carolina since their
parents' tragic deaths, twenty years ago. But now, Tal heads to
cousin Delta Whittlespoon's famous Crossroads Cafe in the mountains
above Asheville, hoping to find a safe hiding place for her young
daughter, Eve.
What she finds is Cousin Delta gone, the cafe in a biscuit crisis,
and a Scotsman, who refuses to believe she's passing through
instead of "running from." He believes she needs a knight in
shining flannel.
When a pair of sinister private eyes show up, Tal's troubles are
just beginning.
For Tal's brother and sister-Gabby, the Pickle Queen, and Gus, the
Kitchen Charmer-the next part of the journey will lead down
forgotten roads and into beautiful but haunted legacies.
