A wary witch, a foppish zombie and an enigmatic stranger are drawn to the power of a magical amulet. Sarah Snow hides a terrible secret: she is a reluctant witch, bound by an old promise to resurrect her foolish dandy brother Barty every time he dies. When Barty’s latest reanimation doesn’t go to plan and he begins to look like a walking corpse, Sarah must use her unwanted magic to find a cure. With her brother deteriorating and her own confidence growing, she hears of a magical talisman that could solve his problems – the Amulet of Hecate. The problem is, Barty isn’t the only person who needs it, and to find it Sarah will need to perform a lot more magic. Sarah’s quest leads her to question her family duty and abilities, and draws her irresistibly towards the charismatic Elijah Swift.
