Description
Helena Richardson is a solitary witch determined to keep her license to practice witchcraft. Something has slowly been sapping her powers however and this is no more evident than when her license is restricted with a notice of 30-days given to improve her skills. On the advice of a friend Helena asks the ancient spirits of Standing Stone Circle to aid her in her plight. She believes she’s been given a chance, a test, to prove her worthiness when she stumbles across a body. She never expected the outcome would be a shambling shell of a man.Desperate for answers and to fix the damage she’s done Helena learns she has to wait for Halloween night to ask for help. As Helena seeks out answers as to who the man is, who killed him, and how she can return him to normal, Helena learns that sometimes you have to rely on yourself to get what you want. And if she can improve her skills in witchcraft in the meantime that would be great too.
