Even when death plagues the finish line, the race must go on.
The annual canoe race was always the summer’s biggest event, and this year the prize would be more prestigious than ever.

For a town like Harmony, a little media attention is a lot to handle, which might be why someone decided to kill the executive producer of the event.
If that isn’t enough, abnormal weather patterns threaten the race, leading Mag to suspect the pesky Hagatha Crow is up to something. Again.
In order to solve the case, sister witches Mag and Clara Balefire might have to test the old myths about whether witches can swim.
If you like a good paranormal mystery with a heaping dollop of sarcasm and wit, you’ll love this humorous magical story full of chaos and intrigue.
