Helga Hufflepuff's day is rudely interrupted when two men with seemingly magic wooden sticks invade her convent. Persuaded to leave with them, Helga must now prevent a village from burning her best friend whilst hiding her own magical talent. In a world where witches and wizards are hunted, Helga and her three friends end up on the run for their lives.
