Magical Mushrooms is the third adventure in the award-winning, humorous Samantha Brennan & Annabelle Haggerty Magical Mystery series, featuring a quirky, confused psychic who teams up with a contemporary Celtic goddess hidden within the FBI.
With the worldwide Great Disappearance, magic has come out of the closet. In the blink of an eye, iconic structures around the world have vanished. As for all the people who had been in those buildings at the time — goners, all of them. But the dynamic duo are on the case again: Special Agent Annabelle Haggerty, a genuine Celtic goddess hidden within the FBI, and her flakey sidekick, confused psychic Samantha Brennan. Too bad neither of them are at their best. While Annabelle struggles with an inexplicable dimming of her powers and Samantha now possesses genuine psychic gifts that she can’t control. Will they be able to save the world?
