Mystery Weekly Magazine: November 2017

In our cover story, "The Sugar Witch" by R.S. Morgan, a failed history professor falls in love with a bad witch and discovers that sometimes fortune does favor the bold. At least for a while. In "Day After Thanksgiving Soup," by Debra H. Goldstein, we discover that sometimes what's in 'Day After Thanksgiving Soup' is a real gamble ... What happens when two famous authors discuss the existence of ghosts during dinner in a London flat, and are joined by a noted third author? Tom Tolnay's "A Passionate Belief In Ghosts" results. In "The Last Evil" by David Vardeman, a woman with a nefarious sense of fun meets her match on a train. "Her Father's Killer" by Joseph D'Agnese takes us to the 1940s, following a young woman as she returns to her Appalachian town to avenge her father's murder. Edward Palumbo gives a tale of lust, money and a recipe for murder in "Search For Bread." In "Only We Know" by Stef Donati, there's a new kid at school. And she's not laughing.
