Welcome to Spellbound, where paranormal is the new normal. Life in Spellbound is rapidly changing and many residents are struggling to adapt. Daniel has a halo and a new wife, but still seeks a purpose that doesn't involve annoying Gareth. Meanwhile, Emma seems to be overflowing with purpose and is desperate for a moment of calm. When coven officials from the national headquarters descend upon the town for an inspection of the local chapter and academy, the witches and wizards of Spellbound realize just how lax their standards have been. The last thing they need right now is a dead body—especially when it's discovered during the inspection. To make matters worse, reporters from Starry Hollow—another paranormal town—have arrived to write a story on Spellbound's liberation, but may end up covering a murder instead. Will Emma manage to uncover the killer's identity before the entire coven implodes? Or will this spell the end for Spellbound's coven and its beloved Arabella St. Simon Academy?
