In 1837 London, two young twins must overcome societal expectations, bad millinery, and a mysterious kidnapping to save the soon-to-be Queen Victoria.
Persephone Leland, a shy and studious girl, would much rather focus on her secret magic studies than search for a suitable husband. But as the inevitable "coming out" season approaches, Persy and her twin sister discover that their governess in magic has been kidnapped as part of a sinister plot to control the future queen.
Racing through Bewitching Season's Mayfair ballrooms and royal palaces, the sisters must navigate the complexities of husband hunting, shady royal spinsters, and a mysterious Irish wizard. Along the way, Persy learns that finding the right husband might not be such an odious task after all, if you can find the right quarry. This enchanting historical fantasy, perfect for fans of Half a Soul and Sorcery of Thorns, is a delightful blend of romance, magic, and mystery.
Bewitching Season is a 2009 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.
