Breath, Warmth, and Dream - The Khumalo Trilogy, #1

The three Rules of Witches: Love fearlessly, travel extensively, and never pass up an abandoned cottage for a well-deserved rest. When Mother Khumalo finds the perfect lodging, well away from people, work, or adventure, she settles in with daughter Amnandi for an extended stay. Yet her trips into the nearby port town of Waterfall leave her wary. Something is most definitely not right, and witches, sometimes to their regret, often notice more than they'd like.
A ruthless mage, an angry ghost, and a bone-crunching demon certainly do not wish to be noticed. Witches, however, are rarely in the business of granting wishes. There is a fourth Rule: never fail to protect innocents in harm's way.
