About Clara Pembrook
Clara Pembrook writes the Steepwater Cove Witch Mysteries: clean, cozy paranormal whodunits with fair-play clues, a found-family town, a slow-burn romance, and original tea blends in the back of every book.
The series
Steepwater Cove is a little lobster harbor on the fog-bound New England coast. At No. 9 Wick Street stands Thackery's Tea & Tincture, est. 1891, with a family recipe for a tea that makes whoever drinks it unable to tell a lie for exactly one hour. Whoever brews it can't lie either.
The books are cozy and clean: no gore, no bad language.
