Sam Cheever’s Mature Magic series follows a woman who discovers that middle age comes with unexpected surprises — including magic. The books blend cozy mystery plotting with paranormal elements, keeping the tone light while still delivering genuine whodunit puzzles. Each title in the series plays on the word “what” in its name, giving the books a playful identity that matches their tone.
The series ran from 2021 through 2023 and grew to six books, with Cheever releasing multiple entries per year at her usual brisk pace. The mysteries are self-contained enough to read individually, but recurring characters and a developing magical world reward readers who follow the series in order.
