Lanie Anders has a perfectly ordered life. From her half-foam morning latte to her high-powered executive job—she controls every outcome. But when her house burns to the ground in mysterious circumstances, her life is thrown into confusion. Searching for some kind of purpose, she stumbles across a century-old mystery and flees to Piney Falls, Oregon, an oceanside hamlet with a curious past. But something isn’t quite right in the picturesque town. Her neighbor speaks in riddles, the death rate is alarmingly high, and the impossibly handsome town baker is hiding something.

Life is full of moments. Moments of love. Moments of pain. And I have often wondered why the moments of pain were so easily recalled, while the moments of love were fleeting and gone before I had time to truly appreciate them. It seemed I was irreparably broken. A broken girl with broken dreams.

The secrets and schemes continue
Loving this series as both a book to read and audio book to sit back and enjoy. This is book four in this magic series and I would highly recommend that you read them all, not just because they are good but because they follow on from each other and you learn a little bit more about the mystery with each one and they are just a magical delight. There is a murder in this book and it does get solved but it is more about explaining some of the mystery and secrets surrounding the two mysterious island. Normally I would be disappointed with that as I am a mystery fan at heart but the story is so well written and captivating that I loved it anyway and island colourful island is a mystery in its own right. The characters are wonderfully, I mean who isn't going to love a book the contains a group of cats that hold meetings to try and solve the murder for there human but it is so much more than that, over the course of the four books we have gotten to know the characters so well that they feel like family and I for one one love reading or listening about. I can't wait for the next book and the next big secret reveal, especially as the story ended just as we were going to learn something big.
When her father didn't return from his trip to the look for her mother, Hayden starts to notice that things in Destiny Falls isn't right. Could it be losing some of its magic? She. doesn't have much time to ponder why there are storm clouds in the sky or why the camping shop is just a shop before she is learns about two dead bodies that have just been discovered. Another connection to the strange island of Gladstone and the ferry, has her and the family looking into the past to find the answers. She receives some unexpected help in her quest but not everybody is who they seem to be. Can Hayden, her sassy sidekicks and the family find the answers before somebody else gets hurt?
I really like the narrator. As once again she seems to cast her own spell over the listener, to keep you hooked until the very last word. A really treat.

Love the magical world of Destiny Falls!
There are some new mysteries in this book and more secrets about Destiny Falls are revealed. I enjoy Hayden’s adventures with her cat Latifa along side her. And I really enjoy the magical world of Destiny Falls. The stories are always engrossing and full of a magical tone. I listened to the audiobook and the narration was really easy to listen to.

The series gets better and better.
The Destiny Falls Mystery Series continues with book 4, Witches, Spiders, and Schemes by Elizabeth Pantley. I listened to the audio version of this book. The reader was able to portray the fun and excitement of the book. Her character voices worked well with the story. I love a narrator who can make the book come alive, and Emily Goss does just that.
More secrets are revealed as Gaspar continues with his tutoring of Hayden. The cats are back, and I love how they have a morning pow-wow with Hayden in the mornings to discuss what is happening in their fairytale world. The ending, as always with Ms. Pantley’s books, leaves the reader eagerly waiting for the next book of the series.
I highly recommend you start the series with book one. Characters carry over and continue to grow with each book. It’s the best way to enjoy this incredible book series.
My review is voluntary and all comments and opinions are my own.
