Product Description
Cassie has settled into life in Hedgely when, out of the blue, her troubled cousin, Sebastian, comes to stay for Hallowe'en. Sneering and scornful, Sebastian trails after Cassie and her friends, interfering with their coven projects and belittling the dangers of the faery world.
But Cassie, Rue and Tabitha have bigger problems—as the nights grow longer, a dark shadow creeps out of the Hedge and villagers start behaving strangely, possessed with the desire to find a mysterious object.
When the Hedgewitch is called away, the girls decide to investigate and discover that whoever is controlling the villagers is seeking a faery relic: an ancient and dangerous weapon, hidden somewhere in the village. Their magical training will be put to the test as they venture deeper into the Hedge and race to find the faery treasure before it falls into the hands of the Erl King.

Cassie is behind in all her witch training, and her hard work often ends in disaster. She accidentally destroys her spell book, setting her even further behind. The housekeeper, a long-term resident at Hedgly, gives Cassie her mother's spell book as a replacement. Although Cassie thinks they are the same, the book has information about an extra badge that witches can earn. It is a woodwitch badge for witches who go through the faery hedge. When Cassie and her friends go through, they come across a disoriented man obsessively looking for something. And he's not the only one. A captivating and magical adventure for fans of Nevermoor, A Pinch of Magic, and Narnia. This is the second book in the Hedgewitch series.
