This was a charming middle grade story of an alternate Georgian England where magic is real. Kat is determined to save her older sister from a loveless marriage to the evil Sir Neville. She learns that she has magical talent which complicates things because magic is not socially acceptable. Kat is a intrepid, 12-year-old who never runs out of schemes to save her sister or to help both of her sister's end up with the men who are perfect for them. Wonderful characters in a familiar Gothic setting.This one reminded me of Sorcery and Cecelia by Patricia Wrede and Caroline Stevermer. I ordered a print copy to keep after reading the ARC.
