Summary
Unable to perform any but the most useless of spells, Nola is unable to protect her mother, who is often targeted by witch hunters, and things turn worse when Nola witnesses a murder and is subsequently framed.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Nola's not much of a witch--she can work only a few useless spells, like the one that lets her spy on people. But there's no spell for keeping her crazy mother--who hears voices and is a magnet for witch-hunters--out of trouble. The two flee from town to town until the day Nola magically witnesses a murder. Which is bad enough, but worse is that the murderer may frame Nola and her mother for the crime. And then no amount of magic will save her.
And you think your teenage years are tough. . . .
