Summary:
"When young Daniel Whitman is killed at a high school party, the entire community is ripped apart. The death of Sanctuary's star quarterback seems to be a tragic accident, but everyone knows his ex-girlfriend Harper Fenn is the daughter of a witch--and she was there when he died. And when Harper insists Dan was guilty of a terrible act, the town turns on her. As accusations fly and the mothers of the community find themselves at odds, paranoia grips the town, culminating in a witch--hunt the whole world is watching... A magically inventive debut that twists Big Little Lies with Practical Magic in a dark mystery of four women, a wicked secret, and an investigation that shakes their Connecticut town to the core."-- Provided by publisher.
