    About this ebook

    Gem is one of the unlucky ones, the one child in every seven that Magic forgets to bestow a Gift upon. And, as an extra unhappy bonus, she gets to be terrified of birds. Years later when her Gift finally surfaces and she should be happy that Magic didn't forget her after all, she discovers that to claim her Magical inheritance she must revisit and conquer her old childhood fears. Then Gavin, her son, manifests his Magic while little more than a baby, but his peculiar ability to restore youthfulness to the old brings its own problems, not to mention hordes of old people. And worst of all, there’s Buddy, who died one night in a car accident, but is still turning up on Gem’s doorstep, day after day, asking for his Fortune to be read, desperately seeking a future when his life is already over.
