Aunt Ibby and her classmates are planning their 45th Salem High School reunion and so many memories come rushing back to the surface. But that’s not all that’s coming to the surface when Lee heads to the old quarry where an old car is discovered submerged in the waters.

Turns out it’s Aunt Ibby’s old boyfriend’s car and his body is in there.everyone thought he’d just run away from an abusive father all these years. But who would kill him and why? Lee puts on her investigative reporter hat and tries to bring the truth to the surface.

I have long enjoyed this series and this installment is the best one yet. Who doesn’t love O’Ryan,? All of the characters complement each other in the overall telling of the story and make it a pleasure to spend time in Salem with them. Love that local places are written into the story as well…some of them may not be named but I know exactly where the author is writing about. A great series. Can’t wait for the next book in this series.

Final Exam is a captivating story that will leave the reader wanting more.
Lee is looking for a story to help her career as an investigative reporter. When a lead takes her to a gravel pit, she has no idea of the secrets that will soon begin to unravel.
I was captured by the story from beginning to end and I'm looking forward to reading more in the series.

I'm a fan of this series and I think it improved with every new installment.
This book started slow but after some chapter you're involved and you cannot put the book down.
The plot was engaging, I loved the idea of the cold case that involves Aunt Abby and her high school year.
It was great meeting again the cast of characters and reading about the changes in their life.
Maralee is a wonderful characters as all the others. I have a soft spot for O'Ryan and I liked his antics.
The mystery was full of twists and turns and, even if it was not hard to spot the culprit, it kept me hooked till the last page.
I look forward to reading the next installment.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to Kensington Books and Netgalley for this ARC

I loved this book. Read it in a couple of hours. I love how detailed the investigation is and how the information comes out. This plot is very interesting. #FinalExam #NetGalley

I love this series. I have read every book in the series and have never been disappointed by author Carol J. Perry’s clever writing. It’s Aunt Ibby’s 45th high school reunion. Niece and TV field reporter Lee is happy to help with the festivities. When Lee finds herself reporting on an abandoned vintage sports car with human remains, Lee knows she has come across another mystery that only she has the special abilities to unravel. Could the mystery and the reunion be related? Why is Aunt Libby so emotional? Will the killer in this cold case strike again? Five stars.

Loved this book! Each book in the series is better than the one before. Lee is a reporter for a local tv station who is dating Pete,a local police detective. Lee was raised by her aunt and shares a house with her. When she begins looking into the background of a news story she quickly finds that it intersects with one of Pete's cases and impacts her aunt.

I love the way that Pete and Lee interact and how their relationship has progressed over the series, especially how Pete has handled Lee's scrying ability.

If you enjoy the genre, you will love this book. The author is on my must read authors' list.

I received a free copy of FINAL EXAM (A Witch City Mystery) by Carol J. Perry in exchange for an honest review. Lee Barrett, investigative reporter, is thrilled to get the scoop on the discovery of human remains in the very bottom of a flooded quarry. Lee’s Aunt Ibby, however, is not so thrilled. It seems that Aunt Ibby knows more about the mystery than she’s willing to share. Even without Aunt Ibby’s usually invaluable assistance, Lee continues to investigate. Lee is determined to find out exactly how close Aunt Ibby was to the deceased and to the murder.

I’m a fan of the Witch City Mysteries. I was excited to get a copy of this book, and I was not disappointed. I enjoyed this book as much as all the others. I anxiously await the next Lee Barrett investigation.
