Delia Spark thought her sixties would be quiet—gardening, tea, maybe the occasional holiday. Instead, she’s navigating a scandalous divorce, a wrecked reputation, and the unsettling tendency for things around her to burst into flames. When even her daughter stops returning calls, escape feels like the only option.
Myrtlewood, a picturesque village tucked away from the chaos of London, promises peace. What Delia finds instead is far stranger: whispered prophecies, ancient crones, and a secret Order that’s been waiting for her arrival. Between enchanted teacakes, cryptic warnings, and the sudden realization she might be magical, Delia’s life takes a turn she never expected.
But destiny doesn’t care about age. To survive Myrtlewood’s mysteries, Delia must embrace her power—or risk losing everything all over again.
