A young British witch, Mika Moon, follows three rules: hide her magic, stay away from other witches, and not attract attention. She was orphaned at an early age and grew up with strangers, so she is used to being alone. However, on her social media page, she posts videos of herself pretending to be a witch.

So Mika will have to decide whether it's worth risking everything for the new family she's been looking for for so long.
