Until now, her magic has lain dormant. Then the former coven reunites, and their magic no longer wants to stay hidden.

And the Path of Blood and Shadow will be revealed for the first time...

As Josh is drawn further into the lives of the inhabitants of Beldam House, Essie is determined to keep him at broomstick’s length.
