Britain may have won the First World War, but the witches of ADAM lost. Now an embarrassment, the Allied Directorate for Alternative Means is to be disbanded and its witches scattered, their lives overturned and shattered once again. Presented with a final chance to keep their budding coven together, it will take more than magic for them to succeed. When Millie Brown's best friend goes missing from the program, she must track her down and bring her home before she's hunted down by a government that no longer wants anything to do with witchcraft. If that weren't enough, if Millie fails, not only will ADAM be disbanded, but the beguiling witch Elise will be sent back to France. Fearing that as much as her own feelings for Elise, Millie will have to look within herself to find the truth of her magic and hold together that which is most important to her or lose it all. And a young woman known only as November wakes up on Christmas morning in an empty grave with no memory of who she is or why she can do impossible things. With no memory of her past, she must struggle to find out just who she was and why it has come back to try to kill her. The sudden manifestation of a power she can't understand and barely control makes it all the more urgent, for the sake of everyone around her as much as herself.
