beguiling cozy mystery series featuring a librarian-turned-bookseller

Controversy erupts in Miracle Springs, North Carolina, when the owner
of the local bookstore tries to play peacekeeper--but winds up playing
detective instead...
Known for her window displays, Nora Pennington decides to showcase
fictional heroines like Roald Dahl's Matilda and Madeline Miller's Circe
for Halloween. But a family-values group disapproves of the magical
themes and wastes no time launching a modern-day witch hunt. Suddenly,
former friends and customers are targeting not only Nora and Miracle
Books, but a new shopkeeper, Celeste, who's been selling CBD oil
products.
Nora and her friends in the Secret, Book, and Scone Society are doing
their best to put an end to the strife--but then someone puts an end to
a life. Declared an accident, the ruling can't explain the old book page
covered with strange symbols and disturbing drawings left under Nora's
doormat. It's up to Nora and the Secret, Book, and Scone Society to sort
out the clues before more bodies turn up and the secrets from Celeste's
past come back to haunt them all...
