Born For Magic: 10

In Gloamington, magic has always had rules. Two years after Ella Bloom arrived, it's forgotten every single one. On the spring equinox, magic begins bleeding through the ground-wild, uncontrolled and growing stronger by the hour. No one knows where it's coming from. No one knows how to stop it. And in the chaos, the headmistress of the Hedge Witch Academy turns up dead. The Hedge Witch Council is fracturing. The covens are turning on each other. And with magic tearing holes in the earth beneath their feet, Ella Bloom and Malcolm Fawkes are left to untangle a murder that may be bigger than either of them imagined. The Hedge Witch Academy was never without enemies. Not everyone believed mortals had any business learning magic. And the headmistress had more than her share of them. But is the surge of wild magic a symptom of the same darkness that killed her? Or is something far worse rising beneath Gloamington's surface? Born For Magic is the tenth book in the enchanting Ella Bloom Mysteries.
