Complicated Life of Deegie Tibbs

Deegie is an independent young witch with a lot going on-maybe too much. She has a funky little shop full of magical items, and a tendency to cast crazy spells whenever the mood strikes her. But, when her boyfriend and her traitorous next-door neighbor get together, she takes swift revenge and goes off to live in the back of her overcrowded bus, and not for the first time. So, when the strange old house on the other side of town goes on sale, she's the first one to snatch it up. Complete with ghosts in the walls, a murderous history, and a basement filled with impossible things, like a jar of human fingers... and its very own demon. Deegie's going to need all her magical skills and inspired spell-casting-and some help from her slightly mad friends- to satisfy the ghosts and send the demon back, where it belongs.

An army of witches battles bizarre creatures and unspeakable evil in the second Deegie Tibbs adventure from the author of A Jar of Fingers. A strange, dark creature stalks the woods behind Deegie's house, and the small town of Fiddlehead Creek is in an uproar. After it is killed, things seem to settle down, but when Deegie meets a stranger in her backyard, she soon realizes that her life is still very much in danger. Hideous creatures conjured from a deranged mind are now threatening her from all sides. Together with her friends, Zach and Gilbert, and a group of magical acquaintances, Deegie sets out on a quest to confront the evil that has been stalking her, since she was born. They are soon joined by Deegie's father, who has miraculously returned from the dead... or has he?

For witch Deegie Tibbs, toil and trouble come in many forms including a week's worth of obnoxious spirits (that aren't even her fault... for a change). A teenage girl steals a magical item from Deegie's shop and accidentally conjures up seven of the most annoying paranormal entities in Washington. Now Deegie and her friends-a boyfriend, his brother, a witch, and a thief, have to help her capture them all, one by one. At first, they seem harmless and amusing, but these supernatural beings are anything, but benign. Lives are being threatened... including Deegie's. It's a weird round-up of some of the most bizarre creatures the witches of Fiddlehead Creek have ever encountered. As the drama intensifies, so does the pain in Deegie's heart, when she starts suspecting that the love of her life is making some magic of his own with a mysterious newcomer. A wise old witch named Flower discovers the secret of the marauding ghosts, but can she help end the chaos before it's too late?
