Cover of Illusion of a Boar: Four magical specialists are thrown together in the spring of 1944, working on a secret project in the run-up to D-Day. Solving the problem before them is one thing: sorting out their lives is an entirely different one. It’s full of chosen siblings having each other’s backs, forced proximity, and unexpected skills in play. A fantasy romance, this is also a great entry point to the series.

Illusion of a Boar

The cover of Three Graces has three women in silhouette, two standing and one sitting, her hand resting on a cane. All three are wearing clothes from during the Second World War, against a deep brown cover with a map. An astrology chart to the back left has the Moon and Venus picked out in brighter gold.

Cover of The Magic of Four: Four students in silhouette on a blue background of a map off the west coast of Wales. Three stand around a table, the fourth is perched on the near corner, leaning forward and gesturing.

The Magic of Four

Cover of Grown Wise: A silhouetted man and woman in 1940s clothes, walking together as he reaches for a branch full of apples. The background is a muted green and brown, scattered with a swoosh of golden light.

Apt to be Suspicious is a deep red-wine purple. A silhouetted man poling a punt and a woman, her back to the viewer, watching him, are framed by ivy and swirling magical stars.

Apt to be Suspicious

Cover of Unknown Depths: A man and woman silhouetted against a blue background with a wave rising up above them. They are looking down, in conversation with a seal. He wears a peaked cap, jacket, and boots, while she has a long braid down her back and is wearing a shalwar kameeze with a bit of her dupatta hanging over her arm.
