Veronica arrives with her class in the spellcraft tower of the Oakhurst School of Magic to teach the bunch of young—and not particularly well-behaved—teenagers about the school's ancient spellbook. But the book has gone missing from the cabinet!

Only a few people have the key to the tower, and very soon, the town's mayor will need the book to bless the start of the new council year.

Who has stolen the book?

Is it Barnaby the caretaker, and has he sold it on the black market?

Is it Jasper Bloom, a fellow teacher, and did he want to find a love spell?

Is it the cranky teacher Mr. Stone, who hates the mayor and would gladly make the council's life difficult?

And what can Veronica do if the truth potion she gives these people only complicates matters, backfires spectacularly and makes them say outrageous and embarrassing things?
