Robin Wildwood might know the reason she was chosen as Head Witch, but is she ready to rise to the challenge?

Her grandmother's cranky ghost thinks not - and so do Robin's living family members - but at least she has the support of her squirrel familiar Tansy, her friends, and her new boyfriend, Harvey. Demons aside, life is good.

At least until the leader of the local flower club dies in suspicious circumstances, and a bizarre curse is unleashed on the town, causing monstrous slugs to wreak havoc in the gardens of Araminta's enemies. There seems to be a clear link between the curse and the murdered witch, but how can a dead woman have cursed half the town?

And why is there another red squirrel running around spying on her family?

With demons knocking at her door, Robin has to pick her battles wisely, but even the Head Witch has little choice over her fate. If she doesn't solve the murder and stop the curse, she might lose her title before she ever gets the chance to prove herself against the demons.
