The Witching Wind

Eleven-year-old Roxie was excited to start sixth grade... until a mortifying incident at a pool party turns her into a middle school laughingstock. So when her country music star Granny invites Roxie to join her on tour, she jumps at the chance. But then Granny — who's been struggling with memory loss — goes missing, leaving Roxie without an escape plan... and without her best friend.

Grayson doesn't mind being sent to yet another foster home. Her older sister, Beanie, is about to turn eighteen, which means she'll be able to become Grayson's guardian. But when Beanie's birthday finally arrives, she doesn't show up to collect Grayson. She doesn't respond to calls or texts. It's almost like she's just... vanished.

Roxie knows Granny would never leave without saying goodbye. And Grayson is certain Beanie would never abandon her. So when the new friends learn about the Witching Wind that "steals" what people love most, Roxie and Grayson are certain Granny and Beanie didn't just disappear: they were taken. And it's up to Roxie and Grayson to outwit the Witching Wind before it's too late. From Natalie Lloyd, bestselling author of A Snicker of Magic and Hummingbird, comes a heart-expanding adventure about the magic of family, friendship, and the lengths we go for the people we love.

Description

"Assisted by the rest of their self-declared group of misfits in Club Yeehaw, the girls team up to find the missing 'heart person' they each long for, even as a local meteorological phenomenon known as the Witching Wind comes howling down from the hills.... Fans of fabulism will embrace the wild winds and the town legends about their origin, while realistic fiction devotees will appreciate the naturally developing friendships, strong family bonds, and straightforward portrayals of bullying, foster care, dementia, and rural life. A powerful paean to human connection with a dash of magic." — Kirkus Reviews
