Biography

Margaret C. Morse loves murder mysteries—the sooner the corpse appears, the better! If not reading crime fiction, she’s writing it. Margaret’s debut novel, Murder Casts a Spell, features lawyer Petra Rakowitz, who turns into a witch during her first murder case. In the second, Murder Lifts the Spirits, Petra must defend herself from a murder charge. The third, Murder Hexes the Reunion, finds Petra determined to solve a swindler’s killing before her newly discovered birth mother emerges as a suspect. When characters can kill with magic, the ways to dispatch a victim dramatically increase. After 25 years as a Public Defender Margaret knows a lawyer can transform into a witch. Margaret lives in Phoenix with her wonderful husband Duane and numerous mutts. If she’s not planning how to kill someone, Margaret loves cooking, bird watching, and visiting stark landscapes.
