It’s another normal week in Spellcaster Creek. Magical garden gnomes have invaded the town, landscaping yards without consent, and demanding exorbitant fees for their handiwork. There’s also the small matter of everyone in town acting completely bonkers, meaning that things soon fall into chaos and calamity. There’s a new teashop in town, but with so much already on her plate, Sage hardly has time to check out the latest cool addition to Spellcaster Creek. Grandma Thelma has also elected to put herself in a retirement home, but after just one night’s stay, the eccentric family matriarch is convinced something is afoot—Sage isn’t so sure. Getting rid of invasive magical gnomes requires some hard-to-find ingredients, sending Sage, Astrid, and Callie on a dangerous mission to fiery caves and alternate realms filled with strange dimensional creatures. As they research the strange madness spreading through town, they also discover something Spellcaster Creek isn’t the first magic town to face this contagious craziness, and this problem has never been successfully solved! Keen to stop the entire town from getting committed, Sage and friends work around the clock to figure out who’s behind the strange magic sending Spellcaster Creek into chaos. Can they uncover who’s behind the dark magic? Can they stop a spell that has never been stopped before? Is Spellcaster Creek doomed once and for all? There’s only one way to find out. Tea and Turmoil features a standalone mystery plot and can be read on its own. It’s fast, fun, and a clean read.
