When Charmain agrees to housesit for her great-uncle—who happens to be the Royal Wizard—she has no idea she's signing up for the magical adventure of a lifetime. His cottage is far more than it seems, with doors opening onto impossible places and a cast of increasingly complicated magical residents who become her responsibility. She's suddenly tangled up in a desperate royal hunt for a legendary artifact called the Elfgift, and when the intimidating Sophie and her famous family (including the notorious Wizard Howl) show up to help, things spiral into delightful chaos. Charmain will discover that sometimes the greatest magic lies in the unexpected bonds we form and the truths we uncover along the way.
