We first met the Owens in the glorious novel Practical Magic. We discovered the tragedy of the Owens siblings in The Rules Of Magic. Now we learn how it all began with a baby abandoned in a snowy English field in the 1600s. Under the care of gentle Hannah Owens, little Maria learns about the Unnamed Arts. Maria has a gift for them. A gift that may well prove her undoing. When Maria is abandoned by the man who has declared his love for her, she follows him to Salem, Massachusetts. Here she invokes the curse that will haunt her family. And it’s here that she learns the rules of magic and the lesson that she will carry with her for the rest of her life. Love is the only thing that matters.
