Jasmina thought she'd left witchcraft behind her. She's worked hard to leave the abusive magic-filled compound she'd grown up in. Her life was normal now: a public service job, a town house, a book club. Normal. Until Larch shows up. A cousin, expelled from the same compound she fled, all those years ago. And now Jasmina's his only contact in the outside world. With Larch, Jasmina finds herself hurtling back into the world of witchcraft, getting to know a whole new group of people. Is it possible for magic to go with kindness, goodwill, even love?
