As the excitement of the St. Maurice Founders Festival kicks off, Star Sinclair unveils her grand vision for developing the waterfront—plans that threaten to obliterate the merfolk town and compromise the magical protections they hold dear.
A confrontation between the leader of the merfolk and Star escalates into a battle of epic proportions over the future of the bay. But when a key player turns up dead, the stakes rise. Amanda's father becomes the prime suspect in the murder, leaving Twizzle with a dilemma she never wanted to face: helping Star Sinclair.
Despite her reservations, Twizzle knows that uncovering the real murderer is the only way to exonerate Amanda’s father. To complicate matters, Basil and Mort are on a mission to prove that chili-cheese dogs deserve a star or two in the prestigious restaurant guides, adding a light-hearted twist to the unfolding chaos.
With Twizzle, Kami, Amanda, and the ever-resourceful mini-dragons juggling the urgent tasks of protecting the pier, saving Mertown, and unmasking the killer before they strike again, the pressure is on. Can Twizzle navigate the treacherous waters of intrigue and save the pier from imminent destruction?
Get ready for a whirlwind of quirky characters, a magical setting, and an engaging whodunnit filled with red herrings and clues in A Twisted Festival, the next installment in Alyn Troy's enchanting Pixie Twist Mysteries!
Join the adventure today and uncover the secrets hidden within St. Mo!
Alyn Troy is an American from the Midwest (Indiana) who writes The Mystic Brews and Pixie Twist series of Paranormal Cozy Mysteries. In addition to Indiana, he's lived in Southern California, where the Pixie Twist series is set, and has served as a history docent on a notable pier in SoCal. In his past lives, he's been a journalist, a wedding photographer, and an adjunct professor. Alyn gets assistance from his fuzzy familiar (AKA "Lord Fuzzbutt").
When not helping his human with the writing of paranormal cozy mysteries, Lord Fuzzbutt likes to sit out outside and watch the hummingbirds dart about like pixies. He often yowls at the door, waiting to head to the patio for chipmunk duty.
Fortunately, the little rodents are craftier than Fuzzbutt is.
Alyn's beverage of choice is dark roast coffee with a dash of honey, and a splash of half-n-half. In addition to being half-way competent with his home espresso machine, Alyn makes a mean Mai Tai.
