Using her witch magic to turn the old falling down bowling hall into an escape room. When an old friend moves back to town, Dahlia finds herself getting talked into helping him and his business partner. I look forward to the next book in the series, to see what the author has in store for the characters next. I especially like Broomhilda the playful broom with an attitude. But it is the characters that really make the series, they are quirky. I really liked the way it is all set around an escape room and games club (another original idea that works). The main mystery it's self is good and does get solved, I had no idea who the killer was of why. The main character has to preform a spontaneous good deed everyday or slowly turn to stone, this is a long running thread throughout the series as is the witch who cursed her, the book does work well as a standalone but I think maybe it works better if you start with book one because we learn a little bit more with each book. I love the idea of the curse, as a plot line for the character not to curse anyone. I enjoy paranormal cozy mysteries but this series is so unusual and original in the story line that it is up there as one of my favourites and book two doesn't disappoint. In this one-hour escape room, failure to escape could mean death, not just for Dahlia, but for those she holds most dear. The only way to divine whether or not the death was her fault, the result of an accident, or murder is to investigate-and perhaps even play the dangerous game herself. Riddled with guilt, Dahlia wonders where her enchantments went wrong-or if there’s something more to the disaster. Dahlia’s enchantments accomplish the task, but before the Games Club has a chance to enjoy the new attraction, a test of the escape room results in a freak, fatal accident. With the Spooky Games Club thriving, Dahlia decides to help her friend by using her magic to quickly get his business up and running. However, her hopes for a more peaceful existence don’t last when a childhood friend moves back to Luna Lane to open up an escape room. After the disaster of the month before, Dahlia Poplar, cursed witch and helper extraordinaire, is ready for her serene, supernatural small town life to return to normal.
