Description

Magic got them into this mess. Now it's their only way out.

Layney's life appears picture-perfect – respectable husband, sweet teenage daughter, five-bed home in Cheshire. But when her daughter starts acting possessed and her own forgotten memories bubble to the surface, she realises something is very wrong.

Turns out, Gran cast a spell years ago to keep them safe. And now it's wearing off.

Layney remembers her long-lost Highland heartthrob. Her daughter's going rogue. And after a blazing row with her husband, she plans a dramatic escape to Scotland. But just before they leave, news arrives: Gran has died – and left Layney a bookshop in a magical village on the mystical Isle of Whye.

Also left behind? A murder. And Layney might be next.

With the help of a snarky talking cat, Layney must uncover her true power, catch a killer, and figure out if she's ready to risk her heart again... preferably with a rugged man in a kilt.

If you like your magic mischievous, your heroines over forty, and your mysteries just a little chaotic, you'll love this warm, witchy escape.
