Elizabethan England is a time of superstition and strange goings on. If you have a problem, it's common to go to a witch for help. And Queen Elizabeth I is no different... When Daisy -- a precocious young witch -- learns of the death of the Queen's Royal Witch, she flies to London to audition as her replacement. But Daisy is from a poor family, and they don't let just anyone into the Royal Court. The only way into the palace is to take a job as a cleaner. As Daisy cleans the palace, she draws the attention of Elizabeth's doctor (and arch-heretic) John Dee, who places her into the auditions -- much to the chagrin of her more well-to-do competitors. But Dee knows how dangerous the corridors of power have become, with dark forces manipulating events for their own ends. To him, Daisy represents a wild card -- one that may decide the fate of many

Daisy Sparrow navigates her role as Queen Elizabeth I's trusted witch while facing mounting pressure to marry and relinquish her power. Tensions rise with the arrival of a Spanish prince, who seems familiar yet suspicious. As nefarious forces threaten the Queen, Daisy must harness her magic and wit to protect her and confront the challenges of loyalty, power, and identity in a male-dominated world.
