Nothing much special happens—in fact, things are so mundane that Hagitha spends most of her time cobweb gathering and wasting way too much energy on witchy salves and beauty spells. Until one day, when a strange applicant to the coven challenges her in a way she had never imagined, and Hagitha realizes perhaps her life is not so boring after all. Hagitha sets up shop as a detective, and soon discovers that with vampires, trolls, dragons, ghosts and more, she may have more business than she can handle!
