Three Crows. Three tales. Three turning points.

Before the Bookish Barista became Welston’s social hub, difficult decisions shaped destinies.

In these three tales from the Crows’ Feat Mysteries, glimpse pivotal moments in the lives of Mason, Sam, and Susan Crow. A covert mission draws Mason into the shadows, forcing him to choose between duty and family. Sam, caught between heartbreak and intuition, refuses to accept the world’s verdict on her husband’s fate. And young Susan? She’s about to discover that magic isn’t just inherited—it’s earned in friendship, courage, and a very public fallout at a summer fête.

Each story is a puzzle piece from the wider world of the Crows’ Feat Mysteries. Some are more obvious than others. As you read the full-length books, I hope you’ll enjoy spotting how these short stories have quietly slipped in ahead of you.
