Feathers of Fading Magic
(2026)(Book 13 in the Quillhaven Paranormal Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Tessa Silver
Fading feathers. Failing magic. One chance to save them both.
Something is wrong in Quillhaven. The animals are going quiet. The forest holds its breath. And the protective Boundary that protected this magical New England town for generations is unraveling thread by thread.
When wildlife ranger Finn Flaherty arrives at the Kindred Creatures Refuge with an injured owl whose feathers are ashen, veterinary assistant Meredith Lee can't explain what she sees—and she has never met a problem she can’t explain.
Then a young runaway named Sylvie Brooks stumbles out of the forest cradling something even more impossible: a magical mother Phoenix and her fledglings, all of whom are fading fast.
Suddenly, this small town's carefully tended magic is everyone's problem.
From the shelves of local witch Annie Hart’s shop, Spellbound Stories, to a healing ritual at the disintegrating eastern ridge, an unlikely group of Quillhaven residents—magical and otherwise—must race to restore what's been neglected before it disappears for good.
Feathers of Fading Magic is a story about belonging, legacy, healing, and the surprising courage it takes to open your mind to the impossible.
NOTE: This series can be read in any order.
