Daphne Alcott and her familiar, Dolly, return home to Shadow Woods after four exciting years at the Havenwood Academy for Brilliant Young Witches in Missouri. Her grandmother, Arabella, is excited to receive them and thrilled to finally get some help at the family’s business, The Bright Light Bookstore.

In coming back home, she’s reminded of the importance of family. Her older brother, Matthew, is glad to see her return. However, he’s still reluctant to accept her friendship with heiress Elizabeth Evanston. Despite his differences with the rich Evanston girl, Matthew shares one thing in common with her. They both love Daphne to pieces.

With advanced spellcasting skills and a newfound love for photography, Daphne is thrilled to start a new chapter in Shadow Woods.

However, things soon turn upside down when she’s snapping photos of the lake with Dolly, and they find the body of a drowned young woman. A few days back in her hometown and she’s already entangled in a murder investigation.

Daphne didn’t do anything wrong! After all, she didn’t even know the woman.

Amidst the calamity and confusion, Daphne begins to have a crush on the fresh-faced history professor who keeps stopping by her bookstore. He’s a mortal, so she’s convinced nothing will ever work between them, but a tiny flicker of hope remains in her mind…

It doesn’t take long for Daphne to start unraveling the truth behind what happened at the lake. The revelations begin a domino effect that makes her question what truly happened to her parents, who disappeared nearly two decades ago.

They were dead! Grandma Arabella always said so. However, she might not be so sure anymore…
