Legends & Lattes meets The Lost Apothecary in this debut adventure fantasy following a potion maker who must hide her true powers from her misfit co-workers, only to suffer the consequences of leading a double life.

For any hope of a future, the scrappy misfits must band together, embrace what makes them outcasts and trust in each other’s talents – no matter how strange …
