This book starts out like many YA books. After tragedy, a young girl and her family relocate and she discovers her magical heritage. But what starts as a cute witchy story quickly turns.
Someone is kidnapping and murdering witches, and no one is connecting it. But Eleanor finds herself in the middle of the plot.
This book has so many twists and turns, some which I guessed and some that had me shocked. But it's done really well in that you are trying to pick up the pieces and solve it alongside Eleanor.
The author does have some suspenseful flair and loves to end a chapter on a cliff hanger, but because it is literally life and death, it works.
