Ella Bloom can see magic no one else can—and it's leading her straight to a killer. When Ella accepts a mysterious job in the picturesque town of Gloamington, all she wants is six weeks of peace and a place to call home. Instead, she finds herself assistant to Malcolm Fawkes, a renowned paranormal detective with no memory of hiring her—or much of anything else. When magic that only Ella can see leads her to a murder, she discovers Gloamington isn't the quaint small town it appears to be. Five years ago, it was a magical haven until something went terribly wrong. Now the town's dormant wellspring—the Gloaming—is stirring again, awakening with Ella's arrival. With a reluctant Malcolm by her side, Ella must navigate a web of secrets, suspicious townspeople and her own mysterious connection to Gloamington's magical past. Someone in town is willing to kill to keep magic buried forever. Ella's unusual abilities make her their next likely target. The Gloaming is opening once more. Could Ella Bloom be the key to everything? Dying for Magic is the first in an enchanting mystery series from the creator of the blockbuster Beaufont universe.
