Summary

When eighteen-year-old witch Iris Gray accidentally enacts a curse that could have dire consequences, she must team up with witch-hating Pike Alder to make sure her magic is not unleashed on the worldWhen Iris Gray was forced to leave her last home, she left behind a father who was no longer willing to start over. While the Witches' Council was lenient in their punishment, Iris knows they are keeping tabs on her. Now settled in Washington, Iris never lets anyone see who she really is; she vents her frustrations by writing curses she never intends to cast. She concocts the perfect curse for Pike Alder, the witch-hating aspiring ornithologist who interns with her at the wildlife refuge she runs with her mother. But just as she's about to dispel it, a bird swoops down and steals the curse. If the bird dies, the curse will be unleashed-- and everyone in the region will become a witch. Iris begs Pike to help her track the bird, and they set out on a trek through the Pacific Northwest looking for a single bird that could destroy everything. -- adapted from jacket
