Roots & Wrath

“Witchy, bitchy, and one hell of a ride … I’m obsessed.”

—Emma C. Wells, USA Today bestselling author of This Girl’s a Killer

Once, there were six.

Six young witches were destined for remarkable things, until they were lured into the dark wood that surrounded their boarding school. Only five witches returned. The terrible secret they buried beneath a hungry great oak split them apart forever.

Then there were five.

Eighteen years later, the death of their legendary mentor Professor Berriman forces them back together. In her will, Professor Berriman invokes a blood oath they made to her, which binds them to carry on her work until one of their deaths finally breaks their special magical bond for good. One of them isn’t willing to wait that long.

Now, there are four.

And the race is on to determine which of them was willing to kill to escape their bond. Magical spells and broken alliances—not to mention a relentless ghost of their past deeds—drive them back to the dark wood to unearth the secret beneath the hungry oak.

Can any of them survive the specter of the dark wood and finally put the past to rest?
