This is the first book in an enchanting new series for children aged 9+. Best described as Little Women meets Buffy, it’s the story of four sisters aged between 9 and 13, each of whom has a magical power, a power that can be used only for good. But when someone arrives intent on destroying their power, they must harness that power to rid the world of evil... The author lives in Norfolk and as one of four sisters has related almost everything in the book to memories of her childhood and of her children’s childhood; the grounds of Sprite Towers are reminiscent of her childhood home, Sprite Towers itself is largely based on the school her children went to and the landscape is very clearly Norfolk, a county very dear to the author’s heart.
