The Queen and the Tower

Calendula Isadora (Callie) is a powerful witch with a scientific mind, whose unconventional methods clash with her San Francisco coven, particularly after she creates a golem and harbors affection for her human boyfriend. As she adjusts to her new home, an alluring warlock complicates her romantic life and her best friend Logandina falls ill with a mysterious, contagious affliction. Determined to uncover the truth behind her friend's condition despite opposition from witchkind authorities, Callie enlists the help of her ancient mentor and her mother, navigating a world of coven politics, illusions, and treacherous warlocks as she pursues a perilous mystery.
