Ein Fieber wütet in New London. Doch da allen Hexen die sofortige Hinrichtung droht, ist die Schwesternschaft machtlos gegen die Krankheit. Cate hat sich bereits durch ihre Magie verraten und gilt nun als die meistgesuchte Hexe in ganz Neuengland. Schwerer wiegt für sie jedoch der Verlust ihres geliebten Finn, dessen Gedächtnis gelöscht wurde, sodass er sich nun nicht mehr an ihre einstige Liebe erinnern kann. Und die Visionen, die Cates kleine Schwester Tess immer häufiger heimsuchen, lassen keinen Zweifel daran, dass sich die unheilvolle Prophezeiung erfüllen wird. Cates, Tess und Mauras vorherbestimmtes Schicksal scheint nicht aufzuhalten zu sein: Eine Schwester wird die andere vor Beginn des neuen Jahrhunderts töten 'Eine Geschichte, so fesselnd und bezaubernd, dass man hofft, sie möge niemals enden.' Andrea Cremer, New-York-Times-Bestseller-Autorin der Serie Nightshade

Als eine der letzten Hexen schwebt Cate in großer Gefahr: Ihresgleichen wird von der Gesellschaft gefürchtet und gejagt. Um ihre Schwestern Maura und Tess und ihren Verlobten Finn zu schützen, tritt Cate der Schwesternschaft bei einem geheimen Bund von Hexen, der einen Aufstand plant. Und dazu ist ihnen jedes Mittel recht. Als die Schwesternschaft Maura und Tess ebenfalls in ihre Obhut nimmt, spitzt sich die Lage zu: Denn Maura würde alles dafür tun, die Hexen an die Macht zu bringen. Selbst wenn das bedeutet, ihre Schwestern zu verraten

Cate und ihre Schwestern Maura und Tess sind Hexen. Niemand darf davon erfahren, denn Hexen drohen Verbannung und Tod. Die Gefahr, aufzufliegen, lastet schwer auf Cate. Vor allem seit Finn aufgetaucht ist, dieser Junge mit den Zimtsommersprossen und dem kupferroten zerzausten Haar. Verzweifelt sucht Cate nach einem Ausweg und stößt im Tagebuch ihrer toten Mutter auf eine rätselhafte Prophezeiung, die besagt, dass drei Schwestern mit magischen Kräften die Hexen zurück an die Macht führen werden. Handelt es sich dabei um Cate, Maura und Tess? Und kann es überhaupt eine gemeinsame Zukunft für Cate und Finn geben?

With the Brotherhood persecuting witches like never before, a divided Sisterhood desperately needs Cate to come into her Prophesied powers. And after Cate's friend Sachi is arrested for using magic, a war - thirsty Sister offers to help her find answers - if Cate is willing to endanger everyone she loves.

A fever is spreading. As she reveals her powers to help the people, Cate is about to become the most wanted witch in all of New England. Meanwhile her beloved Finn doesn't remember who she is - she's torn between protecting him and encouraging him to fall for her again.

Toil & Trouble features fifteen stories of girls embracing their power, reclaiming their destinies and using their magic to create, to curse, to cure--and to kill. A young witch uses social media to connect with her astrology clients--and with a NASA-loving girl as cute as she is skeptical. A priestess of death investigates a ritualized murder. A bruja who cures lovesickness might need the remedy herself when she falls in love with an altar boy. A theater production is turned upside down by a visiting churel. In Reconstruction-era Texas, a water witch uses her magic to survive the soldiers who have invaded her desert oasis. And in the near future, a group of girls accused of witchcraft must find their collective power in order to destroy their captors. This collection reveals a universal truth: there's nothing more powerful than a teenage girl who believes in herself.

Told through four viewpoints, sisters Des, Bea, Kat, and Vi, aged nineteen to fifteen, are each transformed, especially in how they see one another, in the last summer before Bea leaves for college.
