Once a Witch - Paperback

by Carolyn Maccullough (Author)

Tamsin Greene comes from a long line of witches, and she was supposed to be one of the most Talented among them. But Tamsin's magic never showed up. Now seventeen, Tamsin attends boarding school in Manhattan, far from her family. But when a handsome young professor mistakes her for her very Talented sister, Tamsin agrees to find a lost family heirloom for him. The search--and the stranger--will prove to be more sinister than they first appeared, ultimately sending Tamsin on a treasure hunt through time that will unlock the secret of her true identity, unearth a legacy of dark family secrets, and unleash a power so vengeful that it could destroy them all. This spellbinding young adult fantasy will exhilarate, enthrall, and thoroughly enchant.

She accepted the quest to prove she belonged, but what happens when the truth is more dangerous than being an outcast?
