En tant que l’une des rares sorcières de Grande-Bretagne, Mika Moon sait qu’elle doit cacher sa magie, faire profil bas et rester à l’écart des autres sorcières pour que leurs pouvoirs ne se mélangent pas et n’attirent pas l’attention. Et en tant qu’orpheline qui a perdu ses parents à un jeune âge et a été élevée par des étrangers, elle a l’habitude d’être seule et suit les règles… à une exception près : un compte en ligne, où elle poste des vidéos “prétendant” être une sorcière. Elle pense que personne ne la prendra au sérieux.

Mais quelqu’un le fait. Un message inattendu arrive, la suppliant de se rendre dans la lointaine et mystérieuse Maison Nulle Part pour apprendre à trois jeunes sorcières à contrôler leur magie. Cela va à l’encontre de toutes les règles, mais Mika y va quand même, et se retrouve immédiatement mêlée à la vie et aux secrets de ses trois protégées, mais aussi d’un archéologue absent, d’un acteur à la retraite, de deux gardiens qui souffrent depuis longtemps, et… de Jamie. Le bibliothécaire séduisant et piquant de Nowhere House ferait tout pour protéger les enfants, et pour lui, une étrangère comme Mika est une menace. Une menace irritante et attirante.

Alors que Mika commence à trouver sa place à la Maison Nulle Part, l’idée d’appartenir à un endroit commence à ressembler à une réelle possibilité. Mais la magie n’est pas le seul danger au monde, et lorsque le péril vient frapper à leur porte, Mika devra décider si elle doit tout risquer pour protéger une famille retrouvée dont elle ignorait l’existence…

As one of the few witches in Britain, Mika Moon knows she has to hide her magic, keep her head down, and stay away from other witches so their powers don’t mingle and draw attention. And as an orphan who lost her parents at a young age and was raised by strangers, she’s used to being alone and she follows the rules… with one exception: an online account, where she posts videos “pretending” to be a witch. She thinks no one will take it seriously.

But someone does. An unexpected message arrives, begging her to travel to the remote and mysterious Nowhere House to teach three young witches how to control their magic. It breaks all of the rules, but Mika goes anyway, and is immediately tangled up in the lives and secrets of not only her three charges, but also an absent archaeologist, a retired actor, two long-suffering caretakers, and… Jamie. The handsome and prickly librarian of Nowhere House would do anything to protect the children, and as far as he’s concerned, a stranger like Mika is a threat. An irritatingly appealing threat.

As Mika begins to find her place at Nowhere House, the thought of belonging somewhere begins to feel like a real possibility. But magic isn’t the only danger in the world, and when peril comes knocking at their door, Mika will need to decide whether to risk everything to protect a found family she didn’t know she was looking for…
