"There’s magic and then there’s magic. Revelation “Reve” Dyer walks a fine line between the two as part of a Las Vegas couple that performs to packed houses on the Strip. But her family’s world is turned upside down when a sabotaged prop leads to the death of her husband. As details slowly tease out, our narrator flees with her family to a small Massachusetts town with its own story to tell. Like generations of her family’s women before her, Reve struggles to balance living in a normal world while facing the dangers that accompany her mysterious, magical inheritance. Author Chrysler Szarlan hooked me with realism, but I stayed for the magic!"
