House of Elephants (Witchlings 3)
About this book
The Spares of Ravenskill have less magic and less power than the other covens. That's just the way it is -- the way it's always been. But now Spares are starting to disappear. And no one seems to care.
Nothing is more important to Seven Salazar and Thorn Laroux than finding a way to cure their best friend, Valley Pepperhorn, from the hex that is slowly making its way closer and closer to her heart. Still, they have to figure out what's happening to the Spares. What if whoever is responsible for the disappearances is the same person who was behind the hex?
The problem is that with so many people scared and angry about the chaos in their town -- and blaming the Spares, especially the Witchlings -- it feels like it could be almost anyone.
As Seven and Thorn dig deeper into the mysteries of Ravenskill, they start to uncover secrets that have long been buried and forgotten. What they find will change everything -- if only they can get anyone to believe them.
