Ramya thought discovering she was a witch would make life easier. But mastering her powers isn't easy. And while she is stuck in Loch Ness struggling with spells, the wicked siren Portia is gaining control over the human and hidden worlds in the city. 

Time is running out, but the more Ramya presses, the more her family insists she isn't ready to fight. Then an old friend is kidnapped, and Ramya can't wait any longer. Armed with a lot of bravery, a little magic, and a few new friends, Ramya hopes she has what it takes to defeat Portia and the sirens forever.
