Enjoyable read, but I will not purchase it.

I don't mind witchy mysteries. But this one had me confused after the first 10 pages. Maybe I wasn't in the right mindset for it...

The writing is good, grammatically. And I enjoyed some of the characters. But I didnt get a personal connection.

Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Sorry I didn't like this one. Maybe next time.

This is the 6th book in the Wiccan Wheel Mystery Series. This is another intriguing mystery with wonderful Wiccan practices and a perfect Autumn feel of the season . I loved this book and have enjoyed and recommend each book in the series.

Keli is looking forward to a quiet Mabon celebration with her friends and coven while her boyfriend is out of town. She is ready for some peace and quiet in her busy life as a attorney and practicing Wiccan. Her hopes for quiet celebrations are dashed when her former law partner asks her to investigate a will and estate of a old client of his who has passed away. The client left everything to a long lost granddaughter who has been missing from the family for years. The estate is quite large and includes priceless art and antique with a mansion so Keli must find the granddaughter to settle the estate. Keli moves into the estate to catalog the items and work on finding a possible missing first will. In the meantime Keli is being stalked and that is a frightening aspect of this book for me . As Kelli proceeds through the estate she finds that the client may have been murdered and she investigates.

This had all the elements of a perfect Autumn cozy mystery. A great enticing cover, wonderful descriptions of Autumn season and the Mabon celebration . I loved this book and am already looking forward to the next in series. The charcters are all well crafted and I love the interesting sleuth with many twist and turns throughout . This next in series kept me turning pages to the last page. Well done to the author.

I’ve been reading cozy mysteries a lot lately, probably because it’s my second favorite genre. I’ve read all the books in this series so far, this one being the sixth, and I think this one is my favorite of them. I have to admit that Keli’s character didn’t always win me over, but finally in this one she’s completely won me over. She seemed never true to herself, but finally she is. The book also has an interesting plot, and I wasn’t really sure who the culprit was because I kept changing my mind. I loved the minor changes that happened in this book (no spoilers!), and I’m hoping we’ll get to see more of the secondary characters, especially Arlen. He intrigues me. This is a great cozy mystery, and you should pick this one up if you like this genre. Highly recommend, and I was provided a copy which I voluntarily reviewed.

Resourceful and intelligent, Kell Milani practices law in Edinton, IL. In this sixth book in the series, she is becoming more open about her religious practice...that of a Wiccan. Her harmony with nature and her senses allow her intuition to flourish. A fellow lawyer and friend recruits her help in the resolving of the estate of a wealthy woman. But was there a reason to be suspicious of her cause of death? And the heir to the estate has been missing for over a decade. Red herrings and potential suspects abound, and Keli must use everything in her arsenal to find the truth. I've only read the two latest in the series, but I will definitely read the first four in this appealing series.

What a mess! First Elaine, sadly, died, leaving everything to Lana, her granddaughter who is missing. Then it turns out that Elaine was actually murdered. Keli, an attorney and Wiccan, has been enlisted both help catalogue the estate but also find Lana, who was a high school classmate of her boyfriend Wes. Elaine, as it turns out, wasn't a particularly nice person so there's more afoot that Keli first thought. At the same time, she's prepping for Mabon, an important Wiccan holiday. I particularly like that this series incorporates Wicca in a serious way- not twee, not for amusement but for real. I learned something here. Keli's also being stalked, which might because of this estate or is it because of something else? No spoilers but know that this is an intelligent mystery with good characters and some fun twists. Thanks to netgalley for the ARC. You'll be find with this as a standalone. I'm looking forward to the next one!

Series: A Wiccan Wheel Mystery - Book 6
Author: Jennifer David Hesse
Genre: Cozy Mystery/Paranormal/Witch
Publisher: Kensington Books
Page Count: 368

Publishing Date: September 24th, 2019

The much anticipated cozy book addition to the “A Wiccan Wheel Mystery” series from Kensington books hits stores on September 24th. Written by author Jennifer David Hesse, Autumn Alibi was worth the wait, (not that readers had to wait long, but it felt like it).

The “A Wiccan Wheel Mystery” series is one of my favorites and has been from book one. Keli is a delightfully captivating character that if readers could meet in real life, they would admire and want to have as a best friend or neighbor, not to mention as their lawyer. Other characters are equally exciting and vital to the success of this cozy book and the series.

I like the further element of Keli having a stalker, which adds intrigue to the murder mystery. Is the stalker after her, or is the stalker part of the murder? Although I figured out early in the book who the killer is, it did not diminish my enjoyment of the story or this cozy book overall. Most readers will enjoy the energy, the twists, and turns, and will cheer Keli on as she begins to unravel the mystery. The relationship between her and Wes takes another step towards commitment and happiness and will resonate with readers who are currently in a relationship that they want to grow.

Its always thrilling for me to sit down with a cozy book, especially after a long hard day and in a grumpy mood and finish the book with a smile on my face. This is precisely what Autumn Alibi brings to readers, and I am happy to recommend this cozy and series to cozy readers everywhere.

AUTUMN ALIBI is the sixth book in the Wiccan Wheel Mystery series. All of the characters in the book are well developed and the story line is intriguing. I love to read mysteries, especially those which take place in the same season / month in which I am reading them. I am not into Wicca, but I do enjoy the plots of these books and have learned a little about the religion.

Autumn Alibi is the 6th installment in the Wiccan Wheel mystery series. I have not read all the stories in this series but was able to follow the mystery and enjoy. Keli Milanni is an attorney who happens to be wiccan and is looking forward to Mabon the Wiccan Autumn Equinix. Holiday is supposed to bring balance back into your life. Unfortunately, she is working on the estate of Elaine Turnball who has recently passed away and left her estate to her missing granddaughter Lana. There is a missing will as well as then she begins to question whether Elaine’s death is in fact based on natural causes. Keli enlists her boyfriend Wes to look for Lana in Chicago the last place she was known to have been. There is no lack of suspects in Elaine’s death and Keli needs all the protection spells she can get in this one. Good addition to the series and looking forward to the next in the series.

Not only is this another solid entry in the Wiccan Wheel series but it includes some good world building and a big, shocking twist! Don’t sleep on this Mabon Mystery!

I received a copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I was not paid for this review.

This was a fun, relaxing book to read. It's a good mystery that kept my attention, and it has a most satisfying ending. And now I am really wanting to read the next book in the series.

I'm enjoying this series a lot. 🙌 I love the Wiccan angle, and the mystery in this one was particularly well done. 🎨 There was also a great cast of secondary characters. 👤👤👤 I hope we see more of Arlen (the necromancer), and Crenshaw is always I delight. 💗 Keli remains a strong and likable lead, and her and Wes continue to make a cute couple. 💑 So yea, this was a strong addition to the ongoing A Wiccan Wheel Mystery Series. 👍👍

Edindale attorney Keli Milanni is ready for Mabon, the Wiccan Autumn Equinox, when she gets an offer from former law partner Crenshaw to help him settle up an estate. It seems Elaine Turnbull died, and her heir, Lana, is missing, and has been since the day after her father died by suicide. There is also talk that Elaine had written a new will, that is now missing.

While boyfriend Wes is in Chicago on a work assignment, he searches for Lana, since that is the last place she was seen. Meanwhile, Keli moves into the Turnbull mansion to help Crenshaw catalog the valuable art and antiques collection. But the more they search the more questions come arise about things.

It's up to Keli and her usual crew to get to the bottom of things, while they face a string of vandalism against her friends, and the sense Keli is being stalked.

Tightly written and plotted, Autumn Alibi is a great addition to the Wiccan Wheel series. I really enjoy reading about Kili and her adventures. All the characters are perfectly written, and interact beautifully.

One of the things that I really enjoy about Keli is that she seems so real. She is not perfect. She has demons, like the fear of tunnels and being underground, that add to the drama of the story. She is such a regular person, who faces life head-on. She makes each book a perfect way to enjoy turning the pages. There is a perfect blend of mystery and romance. The author also blends in Keli's Wiccan practices and describes them, and the reasons for them, with perfection.

Each book in the Wiccan Wheel series gets better. I can't wait to see what Jennifer David Hesse comes up with next.

I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.

This series is unique in so many ways, but this book tops them all. So many mysteries, so many suspects, and poor Kelli thrown in the mix again. I love the way these characters have progressed from book one. The relationships between them all are well written without being over the top. The mystery and murder were executed so perfectly, it really made the story flow nicely. This is a series that I hope continues on and on.

Keli Milanni is ready for Mabon and is thankful to the Goddess for all she has. When she is asked by her former colleague to help with an estate he is working on, Keli finds herself immersed in a murder mystery. But will Keli be able o celebrate Mabon and be thank the Goddess for being able to solve the case.

This is the first book I have read in this series and I was pleasantly surprised. There are a lot of cozy series that touch on Wicca and Paganism, but this felt much truer to a practitioner by the way the Keli practices and lives her life. So kudos on that. I look forward to reading the previous five books in the series and catching up.

I have only read one other book in this series but that didn't stop me from enjoying this book. I love the characters and the setting. The author does a great job of tying the mystery and Wicca together. I look forward to reading more in this series.

Autumn Alibi is a great cozy mystery that has great characters. The storyline is interesting and entertaining. Well written and I would read more by this author.

I adore this series!!! Once again we are following Keli as she navigates her law practice, her wiccan culture and the mysteries she gets tied up with time and again. In this novel we se Keli get involved with one of the wealthiest families in Erindale in helping her former colleague Crenshaw track down not only the former matriarch's supposed "revised" will and the missing granddaughter and heir to the fortune. Along the way Keli begins to suspect the woman's death is not accidental and someone currently living in the house is guilty of her death. Furthermore, there is the continued "bad luck" that seems to be dogging her, her friends and her practice. Who is out to get her? Who is in the killer? Keli must figure out the answers to both questions before it's too late. So much fun!

Autumn Alibi is part of the Wiccan Wheel Mystery series but can definitely stand on its own. This has become one of my favorite series because I love the town and the characters. I can't wait for the next book!

I am new to this series but really loved it! Love the location, the main character and her friends. It’s nice to read a cozy and this is definitely a cozy, with a strong female lead who makes sense and doesn’t run around trying to crime-solve in a dither. I am going to go back and read the previous books in the series and I hope there will be more to follow. Thank you NetGalley for the advanced readers copy for review.

Autumn Alibi by Jennifer David Hesse was another exciting addition to this series. I have enjoyed each book in this series as the mysteries are all intriguing and the characters are developing in a natural progression.

Keli assists Crenshaw in this investigation and I enjoyed getting to know Crenshaw better. Farrah and Wes also join into the investigation which moved the mystery plot into other avenues that I hadn't considered. I was pleased to meet Arlen and I look forward to seeing more of him in the next book. A well-crafted plot, with several suspects who are all suspicious, a few twists and turns and a finale that allowed all of the threads/clues to come together. I was glad to see the secondary story line of Keli's stalker wrapped up in this one. She definitely was handling it much better than I would have. I appreciate the research that Ms. Hesse does for the Wicca religion to be presented in such a clear and relatable way throughout the story. I'm already looking forward to the next book in this series.
