When the Congregation demands their seven-year-old twins be tested for magic, Diana Bishop faces an impossible choice—one that echoes her own painful childhood and forces her to confront everything she's been running from. A mysterious invitation from a great-aunt she never knew arrives at just the right moment, drawing Diana and her family to Ravenswood, the ancestral home of the Proctor line, where generations of secrets are waiting. Under the guidance of Gwyneth Proctor, a formidable witch steeped in ancient power, Diana begins to uncover her family's dark history while grappling with her own hunger for greater magic and the fear that's always held her back. It's a deeply personal journey about reclaiming your power, breaking cycles of harm, and finally coming home to yourself—all while the stakes for her family have never been higher.
