NEW RELEASE

MAGICK SQUARED is here!

Secrets are like potato chips. Nobody can have just one. 
​

Summer is supposed to be relaxing, but when Stacy's archnemesis uses her to launch a fresh spree of monster making she must sacrifice her secrets or fight back.


Meanwhile, Finder dives into the mysterious world of ritual magick to summon her father's soul and "re-alive" him, forcing Stacy to choose between being the kind of friend Finder needs or staying true to her own gut instinct. It's an impossible position. Every move is right, yet every move is wrong. Pile on a tower of secrets, an ambitious coven of witches, and a little brother who knows everything--it equals a middle game challenge to test everything Stacy thinks she knows.


So when the Man with No Face has a chance to kill Stacy but leaves her alive, she realizes something far more sinister is building, something hinging on every secret she keeps.


Impossible choices?

Layered secrets?

Unknowable consequences?

Welcome to Stacy's summer. Hopefully, she'll live to tell about it.  One thing remains true:

Hope is not a strategy.
