When spells go wrong and blame runs deep, Ryann Toliver must outsmart a vengeful family to save her life?and her dream of freedom.
Ryann Toliver has spent the last twenty years collecting and selling used spells, while dreaming of returning to the United States, away from the choking grip of Naples' preeminent family, the Ricchetti family.
When the head of the Ricchetti family's daughter is murdered by a wrongly combined spell, everyone looks to Ryann, including the Family itself, as she is the only known used spell merchant in the city. Ryann must figure out what really happened before the Ricchettis decide to settle matters their own way....
