The Seventh Witch by Shirley Damsgaard

4.0

Ophelia Jensen, her parent, grandmother Abby and adopted daughter Tink are off to the mountains of the Appalachia region to celebrate Great-aunt Mary's 100th birthday. Being that we are discussing Ophelia here, it doesn't take her long to stumble onto a dead body, and this time Ophelia finds herself up against an evil witch.

The Seventh Witch is the latest in the Ophelia and Abby tells and one of my favorites. Not only do we get to spend more time with Aunt Dot, but we finally meet the frigthening Great-aunt Mary and spend more time getting to know Ophelia's wonderful parents. Back stories and family history are revealed, giving even more depth to the characters, especially Abby.

The same formula is used again, of Ophelia finding a dead body and rushing off to solve problems better left to the police, but at this point in the game you can't expect much else. It is who Ophelia is, but this time I wanted to be right there by her side as she sought to protect her family from harm.

Couldn't hurt that one of my favorite side characters made an appearance.
