Matters are further complicated when Kara and Taff discover Mary Kettle, an infamous witch with an unspeakable past - everything their village fears about magic. When Mary reveals that the path leading out of the Thickety is guarded by Imogen, a creature more monster than human, Kara is hesitant to trust her. But when she offers to help Kara learn to cast magic without a grimoire, she could be Kara and Taff's only hope for escape ... or the first step down a dark and wicked path.
