Mindegyik lánynak van egy különleges holmija, ami szokatlan erővel bír; ezt Widdershins nagyi „egy csipetnyi varázslat”-nak hívja.  Amikor a lányok egy ősi átok fogságába esnek, ezek a mágikus tárgyak lehetnek a segítségükre. De vajon valóban megtörik az átkot, vagy még nagyobb veszélybe sodorják őket?  Michelle Harrison fordulatokkal teli, izgalmas és humoros regénye magával ragadja az olvasót, miközben a testvéri kapcsolatokban rejlő varázslatról mesél.
