Haunted Coast #1
Crooked Curse
A reluctant medium, an entitled ghost, and a dead body at the bottom of the stairs. Suri Mudge is having a bad day. Plagued by headaches and with an attitude to match, Surly -- as she's known to the odd-ball locals in her Oregon Coast community -- stumbles across a murder victim while out for a stroll. Strange things are common in Naghatune Bay, but this is the first murder by magick, though the straight-laced deputy sheriff isn't convinced. Suri assists with the investigation while juggling her teahouse and bookshop business, an arrogant spirit who's not eager to cross over, and a displaced kitchen witch who's just trying to help. But nothing goes according to plan, and then Suri finds herself in the killer's sorcery sights. Crooked Curse is the first book in the new Haunted Coast paranormal cozy mystery series, set in the same universe as the Rune Witch urban fantasy books.

When surly Suri Mudge finds a body washed up on the sand at the base of the steps of her beach cottage, as much as she would like to try to forget it and move on, leaving the investigation in the capable hands of the police, an unwelcome ghostly visitor won’t let her drop it that easily. As she plunges headlong into an investigation of her own into the mysterious death, the ghost of the deceased haunts her at every turn, but she’s also forced to come face to face with the ghosts of her own past.
As far as cozy mysteries go, “Crooked Curse” is as cozy as reading by the fireplace, sunken into your favorite chair, curled up in a warm blanket with a steaming cup of tea on the end table beside you. Jennifer Willis does a great job of using such vivid descriptions to set a scene that when you put the book down, you’ll almost forget that you aren’t actually on the foggy, coastal shores of Naghatune Bay. The characters were relatable and the mystery of the plot engaging enough to make it hard to put it down. If you’re a fan of supernatural mystery fiction, then you should definitely add this one to your list.

Debilitating headaches aside, Suri "Surly" Mudge has built a tolerable life for herself on the Oregon coast. Her teahouse/bookshop manages to run in the black and she's part of the community despite her public image of curmudgeon. But when a body washes up beside her cottage and a ghost begins visiting her, Suri has her hands full. Will Suri's latent talents be enough to solve the mysterious goings-on in her town?
I wanted to like this story more than I did. Indeed, my rating is more along the line of 3.5 stars rounded up. My problem with the main character's personality led me to feel surly, myself. I rather empathised with the townspeople who were not her fans. The minute hints at past troubles were vague and acted as an irritant instead of an enticing building of the character. It was only in the concluding chapter that I began to feel for Suri and, even then, I still wasn't hooked. I did, however, like the premise. On the basis of the plot alone, I will try another book in this series, sometime.

First in the Haunted Coast cozy paranormal mystery series and revolving around Surly Mudge, a migraine-suffering bookseller and tea shop owner in a small town on the Oregon coast. This tale begins in October.
My Take
This was different with the primary character suffering from constant migraines, and dealing with the constant side effects of her prescriptions and the revolving door of trying different ones as current meds cease to work. I so get that! We know all this from Willis’ use of first person protagonist point-of-view from Surly’s perspective.
It surprises me that Suri is able to make a go of a tea shop and bookstore that she doesn’t work at. Oh, she does open the bookstore, at odd hours, but she’s not really interested in selling. The tea shop, however, seems to do quite well in spite of not offering much in the way of coffee. As Suri says, the Tea Reader is the social hub of the town.
Willis has her own take on magic suddenly appearing in the area with a freak lightning storm. One of the fun results is those boxes of books that appear on Suri’s bookshop porch for customers who haven’t yet placed their orders — the Tori Centanni books could be tailor-made for Suri. It’s intriguing to figure out what might happen in the near future based on those books. I should add that the boxes also include assorted kitsch that’ll make you wonder. As for the Meridian Retreat, its existence offers up interesting tourists.
Surly, er, I mean, Suri, has a reputation as a grump, and she is quite anti-social. I can’t really blame her when those migraines keep pounding away at her. She’s also suffering from a major, I mean MAJOR, guilt complex over an event from the past involving Vandenhauter. Willis dances all over the place with this one, teasing the reader.
So Willis is introducing us to the town and its characters and then drops the inciting incident with the mysterious dead body and compounds it with that obnoxious customer. Oy. Suri is amazingly polite to the old biddy.
Trey Lindsey’s recent past is another tease, as Willis trades on trauma to wipe his memories. Audrey intrigues me, and I’d love to try some of her thought-up tea combinations. They sound tasty!
As snarky as the citizens are, they are supportive when it comes down to it. Who knew? Trey also comes to his own realizations. That should be interesting *eyebrow waggle* for the future of this story and for the series.
Willis has got some odd-duck characters as well as the usual people who live in a small town. It’s those nasty odd ducks, ain’t it always?, who drive almost all of the action. The pace seems to have been quick enough — I certainly read through it quickly . . . and I moved quickly on to the next in the series, Fatal Fundraiser . I hate having to wait until October for Tainted Treasure!
Willis does tend to harp on Suri’s migraines and her PTSD about the past, but I reckon it’s fair as it does shape Suri’s actions and the reasons for how she lives her life. It’s a cryptic introduction at the end that makes me wonder if Loki holds the secrets to Suri’s aches and pains.
Go get it — it’s a fun and free read right now.
The Story
A mysterious murder at the foot of Suri’s beach stairs brings Suri into closer contact with her ex-boyfriend than she desires. It’s also what sets Suri off into tracking down the murderer, because she knows she didn’t do it.
It’s her curiosity that sets off all manner of attacks from the attempted “date rape” to the destruction of her bookshop and the Tea Reader.
The Characters
The tea-drinking thirty-two-year-old Suri “Surly” Mudge, a former librarian, suffers from constant migraines and a susceptibility to seeing ghosts. She's invested in the Tea Reader and its side shop, the bookstore where Suri hides out.
Suri leaves the tea shop to Barbara’s management. Baristas include the so-helpful Audrey Medina who has a talent for healing, the unresponsive Ashton Leeds, Samson, and Ruth. Customers include Old Gus, who is a cantankerous regular; Joyce Carpenter; and, Joe Stanley, who is the only coffee drinker in Grady. Angel Cakes is/was one of several vendors supplying the Tea Reader.
The amazingly rude Trey Lindsey is another unexpected element. His background is in finance, his manners are non-existent, and it takes him quite awhile to understand this.
Grady, Naghatune Bay, is . . .
. . . a small town whose neighbors include Standish Beach and the Meridian Retreat, which offers up “spiritual sustenance” seminars. Jim “Chowder” Vandenhauter is a sheriff’s deputy and an old, ex-boyfriend of Suri’s. Colin Jung is Vandenhauter’s new deputy. The skeptical Ennis is the Duniway County coroner. (Hattieville is the county seat.)
The “cross-dressing” Phil Lindquist is the mayor who likes to model outfits from Janice’s (his wife) boutique, Chichi. The Knitting Genie is owned by Emmaline Kapul. Joyce Carpenter owns Go Fish and Surf Supply (said to be the best bait and tackle shop for miles). Giorgio’s Antiques doesn’t open before noon. The Calico Café has closed for the season. Bobby Jackson edits, publishes, and writes for the Naghatune Reader , the local paper. His mother, Marla Jackson, writes the horoscopes as a hobby. Marla has a quirky housemate, Verdy, from whom she gets many of her ideas. Jerry Lantz runs the Lantz Boarding House and has a cousin Jamal trying to perfect a fruitcake recipe. It’ll lead to Hilda’s Delights being a successful mail order business. Cathy works at the Driftwood Luxury Beachfront Apartments. Ruby MacKenzie inherited Dina’s Delectables from her aunt, Dina Jeffries, and sells homemade compotes and preserves at the farmer’s market.
Walt Wisniewski founded the Naghatune Taffy Works, a.k.a. Naghataffy, which is now run by his uninterested son, Walt Jr. Benny Fishbein is the senior manager. Cherry is Benny’s wife. The obnoxious Peter Grove is an efficiency consultant. Andrew “Drew” Gaines used to work for the taffy company.
Jake Hurley, a retired lawyer, likes to fish. Gary Spalding? Johnson? has a goat farm and is interested in books on cryptocurrency. Walt is the mail carrier. Howard Clay is frequently on the beach with his metal detector. Mildred Moroni runs Moroni Grocery. Mark Chelsea is wanted for petty theft. Earl Greenbauer. Elma Meyerson’s West Highland terrier, Bobo, can foretell earthquakes, she claims.
Standish Beach
The Tsunami Zone Pub is where Dell is the bartender. Marvin “Marv” Kling, Kirk, Sean, and Figger are some of the clientele. The last three had been friends with Drew and work at Rainbow Boards, which is owned by Bob Blue. The Standish Awakening is getting the answer to a person's problem. The Salty Pie does a good pizza. It’s a weird combination, but the Sea Witch appears to be a good choice.
Clatsop County
Their sheriff wants the Trey Lindsey case.
I’m guessing that the disaster at the Oregon City library is at the base of all Suri’s issues. Suri shares assorted ghost stories from her past from Charleston to Bowie, Maryland.
The Bandage Man is one of the weirder legends in the area. The fundamentalist Debbi Gaines is Drew’s mother. Not a nice woman from what I hear. Loki is accompanied by a dancing raccoon and a flash of orange fur.
The Cover and Title
The graphic cover is a compendium of the book’s basics — except for that smile on Suri’s face. I don’t think she ever smiles. I did like the blues in the night sky with its sprinkle of stars above the bay with its bits of islands and the lit house on the right. The brown-haired Suri herself stands tall in the middle in a gold coat, wearing a white T-shirt and jeans with a to-go cup in her right hand, her left tucked inside a jeans pocket. Not surprisingly, there’s a ghost looming over her right shoulder. At the top is the author’s name in white. The title spans her lower legs in a black-shadowed pale gold. Below that is the series info in white.
The title reflects that Crooked Curse that went astray and hit the wrong people.

This is the first book in the Haunted Coast series by Jennifer Willis. Suri Mudge is a reluctant medium living in Naghatune Bay, Oregon who prefers to stay away from the paranormal. Suri finds a body washed up on the sand at the base of the steps of her beach cottage, she is forced to confront her abilities. As Suri juggles running her teahouse and bookshop, she finds herself entangled in the investigation, dealing with an arrogant ghost who refuses to cross over and a kitchen witch who insists on helping. But when she becomes the killer’s next target, she must embrace her gifts before it’s too late. This story blends supernatural intrigue, amateur sleuthing, and quirky small-town charm. I really enjoyed this wonderful paranormal cozy mystery novel. There are some delicious recipes included in the book.

Good
Suri Mudge can see ghosts, reluctantly, but when a body washes up on the beach near her cottage, her ex-boyfriend the local sheriff, asks her for help.
Plagued by headaches, and suffering from PTSD, she is an unlikely investigator as she lives up to her nickname of Surly, but when things start to get a bit close for comfort, Suri is determined to find answers.
This was a magical adventure with a twist- or several.
Suri is an unusual main character with her chronic migraine condition and her abilities, but it makes her very intriguing . It will be interesting to see how the other characters we meet play into this too, down the road.
An entertaining read, this is a great book for the paranormal mystery enthusiast.

Light read. In these types of books the heroine is unaware of her powers, unschooled in how any of it works, gets no instructions and stumbles her way through the issues gathering sidekicks as she goes. This particular heroine has the added stumbling block of migraines and unmanageable pain to complicate her understanding.

so good!
I have been in the mood for nothing but coastal supernatural cozies for a month or so and this one was so good!! I love Suri and her headaches/brain fog. I haven’t read very many cozies where the main character has a disability but now I have to go hunting for more because I love it.

Migraines make good decisions hard.
This was a fascinating read and it touched me on many levels as I have have different kinds of migraines and know how debilitating they can be. I loved Audrey's appearance to the story and all the magical things that add to the story. I am very interested in reading the next book in this series.

There are parts of the book that move slow but on a whole I enjoyed reading this book. I am looking forward to the next book in this series to see what happens to the characters of the book.

This book was so much fun to read. A standalone paranormal mystery that is the first of a series. A great introduction to characters and location with a surprise twist at the end. Highly recommended.

A great first book.
This is a really good book. Its not all sweetness and light. I think its not as cozy as some ate.
I loved all the characters and locations. The story line was very good as well.

The Story was well written, but i just could not connect with the main character. I know that a well written character frequently has flaws or issues, but she was just too damaged for me and spent way too much of the story incapacitated by her illness.

Crooked Curse Review
Willis offers a cozy read with some interesting and strong world building and lovable characters. Suri’s migraines make it difficult to connect with her, however, as they don’t seem to contribute much to the story. The recipes are a nice touch.

Hauntingly fun
Overall I enjoyed this book! I wanted more about the migraines (I kinda guessed the reason behind them) but the cliffhanger ending means I have to read the next book to find out the mystery!! Cozy, haunted story on the Oregon Coast, three of my favorite things 😍

The story was intriguing with a mix of paranormal and romantic interests. The author’s description of headache pain was exquisite and unrelenting.

Cute cozy paranormal. I’ll read the rest of the series. This is an author I’ll mark to follow in Goodreads.

I enjoyed the book but don't understand why the main character had to suffer so from headaches and pain. Spirits, bodies - murder and solving the crime and other mysteries make this a good read.

If you have ever suffered from migraine headaches you will feel for the heroine. However, this is what made me not like the book: suffering from migraines an then having to cope with ghosts.

Loved the many twists and turns. Got a little tired of Suri's migraines, but they worked ok. Loved Trey and Audrey. Good read has suspense.

This was a rather difficult book to read. The characters were lovely, the theme on point. As a migraine sufferer, I really got tired of the repetitive mentions of the migraines. which took over the plot & made it a pity party.

This book was exceptional! This was one of my EreaderNewsToday free selections. If you haven't signed up yet do so, you will enjoy it!! I read the synopsis and was interested , I loved it so much I bought book 2 the next day and the final book of this series comes out in October!!
Jennifer Willis is a fabulous author. I was pulled in from chapter 1. Her mix of fantasy, magic, mystery, humor, wit, and page turning excellence had me glued and captivated.
