“Zohra is such an exciting storyteller - I was held spellbound throughout." Abi Elphinstone, author of Sky Song



Set in a lavish world of sorceresses, alchemists, jinn and flying carpets, this spine-tingling middle-grade book is perfect for fans of Kiran Millwood Hargrave and Sophie Anderson.



Confined to a besieged Settlement, Yara longs to free her mother from the alchemists in the City of Zehaira. When Yara receives a message from her mother to find the hidden residence of the Grand High Sorceress, it sets her on a different path.



Yara and her friends set off on an adventure to find her mother’s home, and to seek out a secret magic that her mother was working on – magic so powerful that it could defeat the alchemists once and for all. But the wicked alchemist Omair Firaaz is on her trail and will stop at nothing to gain the power himself…



Can Yara and her friends find the magic that could be the answer to everything … before it destroys them all?



From the author of the Waterstone’s Children’s Book of the Month The Kingdom Over the Sea, comes a gorgeous, lyrical adventure about family and finding where you belong.
