She just has to keep her death magic under wraps.But something unexpected is coming: Faerie of both Sun and Moon are closing in- one for the family artifact, the other for the bounty on her head.For now, though, Tressa is blissfully unaware, accidentally falling for the local horticulturist, and trying to make ends meet in this magical-meets-mundane urban fantasy novella series.BLINDING BRILLIANCEThe finale of The Slooswell Witches story is here!
