"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
THE HOUSE SAPHIR BY MARISSA MEYER
Goodreads Description:
Mallory Fontaine is a fraud. Though she comes
from a long line of witches, the only magic she possesses is the ability
to see ghosts, which is rarely as useful as one would think. She and
her sister have maintained the family business, eking out a paltry
living by selling fraudulent spells to gullible buyers and conducting
tours of the infamous mansion where the first of the Saphir murders took
place.
Mallory is a self-proclaimed expert on Count Bastien
Saphir - otherwise known as Monsieur Le Bleu - who brutally killed three
of his wives more than a century ago. But she never expected to meet
Bastien's great-grandson and heir to the Saphir estate. Armand is
handsome, wealthy, and convinced that the Fontaine Sisters are as
talented as they claim. The perfect mark. When he offers Mallory a large
sum of money to rid his ancestral home of Le Bleu's ghost, she can’t
resist. A paid vacation at Armand’s country manor? It’s practically a
dream come true, never mind the ghosts of murdered wives and the
monsters that are as common as household pests.
But when murder
again comes to the House Saphir, Mallory finds herself at the center of
the investigation—and she is almost certain the killer is mortal. If she
has any hope of cashing in on the payment she was promised, she’ll have
to solve the murder and banish the ghost, all while upholding the
illusion of witchcraft.
But that all sounds relatively easy
compared to her biggest learning to trust her heart. Especially when the
person her heart wants the most might be a murderer himself.
