There was no need for poisoned apples or elaborate hexes. Alice Carmichael’s power was in her tongue. The woman could shoot verbal venom that could destroy the most robust of spirits, and she reduced more than one sales clerk to tears. Okay, she might not have been a wicked witch in the storybook sense. She was in fact worse than that, she was foul mouthed *itch. Close enough I guess.
