Third Spell's the Charm. House of Magic 3‪.‬

Fire wasn't exactly the intended outcome of a water spell, but with me, it was sadly inevitable.

Phoebe's new life as a mage hasn't had an auspicious start. No matter how hard she tries, her spells fail spectacularly. How is she to impress her boss, Archibald Kane, if she keeps setting her hair on fire?

Her problems with magic become trivial when a night out ends with a dead body. The victim has clearly been killed by a vampire, and the evidence points at Phoebe's housemate Luca.

The leader of London vampires, Morgan Hunt, is convinced Luca is guilty. To prove his innocence, Phoebe and Luca set out to solve the death. Was the victim random, or has an old enemy of Hunt's returned? And how are they to unearth the enemy when Hunt has done his best to hide his past?

Phoebe is an expert in digging up old things, but facing a powerful foe would be easier, if she had a hang of her spellcasting too. Luckily she has magical friends she can count on. And maybe the third spell turns out to be the charm after all.
