The Witch Hunt - Sasha Peyton Smith

The lush and pulse-pounding sequel to the New York Times bestselling The Witch Haven sparkles with magic (Kirkus Reviews) as it follows Frances and her fellow witches to the streets of Paris where family secrets, lost loves, and dangerous powers await. nMonths after the devastating battle between the Sons of St. Druon and the witches of Haxahaven, Frances has built a quiet, safe life for herself, teaching young witches and tending the garden within the walls of Haxahaven Academy.

• But one thing nags: her magic has begun to act strangely

When an opportunity to visit Paris arises, Frances jumps at the chance to go, longing for adventure and seeking answers about her power. n nOnce she and her classmates Maxine and Lena reach the vibrant streets of France, Frances learns that the spell she used to speak to her dead brother has had terrible consequences--the veil between the living and the dead has been torn by her recklessness, and a group of magicians are using the rift for their own gain at a horrifying cost. n nTo right this wrong, and save lives and her own magical powers, Frances must hunt down answers in the parlors of Parisian secret societies, the halls of the Louvre, and the tunnels of the catacombs.

Her only choice is to team up with the person she swore she'd never trust again, risking further betrayal and her own life in the process.n
