CHARM CITY (2023)

The Baltimore police are baffled when a Ravens cheerleader is found floating in the Inner Harbor with an arcane symbol carved onto her corpse. And only Alyssia Singer, music blogger at the Baltimore Sun, knows what it means: that a serial killer is targeting Baltimore's underground witching community. Alyssia-an excommunicated witch who no longer uses magic-must decide: take the case and confront her estranged family and long buried demons... or risk more bodies piling up...

After the shocking events of last issue, Baltimore Sun music blogger Alyssia Singer finds herself at a crossroads: Will she face her grief with booze, depressing music and meaningless sex... or confront the demons of her past to solve the string of violent murders plaguing Baltimore's underground witching community? Because solving the murder means Alyssia-an excommunicated witch who no longer uses magic-must confront her estranged family and keep her non-magic colleagues in the dark about the true nature of the story gripping the city... and now it seems that the killer has set his sights on her...

Still grieving the shocking murder of her brother, excommunicated witch Alyssia Singer comes face-to-face with the Carver, the serial killer stalking Baltimore's underground witching community. And just when it looks like she'll be his next victim, help comes from an unexpected ally: Alyssia's estranged sister, Joelle. But is Joelle friend... or foe? Either way, Alyssia's going to have to face some shocking secrets as the Carver sharpens his knife to kill again!

Confronted by her one-night-stand over the existence of magic, excommunicated witch Alyssia Singer finally spills her deepest secrets. And, with all the cards on the table, Alyssia worries the police might have the wrong man in custody as the serial killer targeting Baltimore's witching community. To solve the case, Alyssia's going to have to finally face her estranged father, the powerful witch who kicked her out of the family ten years prior.

Our final issue! The Baltimore PD may have a suspect in custody, but only music blogger Alyssia Singer knows the truth: the man they've arrested is not the serial killer terrorizing Baltimore's underground witching community. Now, Alyssia will have to save her sister (and possibly her job), confront the killer... and finally face the buried demons from her past... with a twist ending so shocking you'll want to re-read the entire series to see what clues you missed!
