Decades ago, Sasha Shantay operated a secret school for young witches and magicians. A hand-written invitation by the grand witch herself was required for admittance. But when Sasha learns that The Final Trial had come upon the world, she hastily closes and hides the school, fearing it would become a beacon for The Dark One and his minions. Her students, including her own four daughters, were put under a Forget Spell, removing its very existence from their minds. But now, memories of the forgotten institution were resurfacing in Sasha's daughters, just as their own children begin their school year. As the once small town of Dark Root booms with new families, Merry is determined to let the past lie in the past. But Maggie, Ruth Anne and Eve are determined to uncover the truth. For not only was the school a safe haven for training, but a depository of knowledge. If not found, it would be lost forever. The Final Trial is upon us. The fate of the world hangs in the balance of one small town and its sisterhood of witches. Return to Dark Root. Secrets. Suspense. Sisters.
