About this ebook
From Paige Crutcher, the author of The Orphan Witch and The Lost Witch, comes a new tale about a witch, a book of magic, and a beguiling and powerful creature whom she must free, even if it puts her life and soul at stake.
Aline Weir, a witch who can talk to ghosts, has kept her talents hidden ever since a disastrous middle school slumber party, choosing to be invisible and use her powers in secret to help lost souls reunite with the keys to send them home. All the while, she finds solace in a bookstore and the three mysterious women who run it... until Aline discovers the book of Mischief, and her powers are enhanced.
Living a solitary life until the age of thirty, Aline’s life takes an unexpected turn when the wrong (or perhaps right) person witnesses her using her powers and she is invited to a town that doesn’t exist on any map. Arriving in Matchstick, Aline learns of a lost magic that desperately needs to be found and only her unique powers can do it. But what she’s not told is that Magic is a person. One that is dangerous and seductive and has been waiting for a witch with a power like hers for centuries.

Pages of magic and love flow into an exciting story of good versus evil. There is one witch who can save the magic world from destruction, Aline. She is not aware of the power she holds until characters erupt from the pages to help her along the way. One of these characters is Magic, a man she read about in a book and who creates wonderful dreams as she sleeps. She is in his dreams, too. They, together, are a force to be reckoned with but it is Aline who must battle the force of evil. A great book loaded with portals, mysterious doors, and a battle of wits and magic. I voluntarily read an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
