Fourteen-year-old Mona isn't like the wizards charged with defending the city. She can't control lightning or speak to water. Her familiar is a sourdough starter and her magic only works on bread. She has a comfortable life in her aunt's bakery making gingerbread men dance.
But Mona's life is turned upside down when she finds a dead body on the bakery floor. An assassin is stalking the streets of Mona's city, preying on magic folk, and it appears that Mona is his next target. And in an embattled city suddenly bereft of wizards, the assassin may be the least of Mona's worries . . .

I have some trouble listening to this because the narrator sounds a bit like she's feeling very sorry for herself. And she does this thing where she kind of compresses the sound of the ending of a word, a bit like she has to get rid of the air she inhaled on the last syllables. I can't even describe it properly, but it somehow sounds like she has to put up with so much – at least to my ears. Really might just be me, others seem to have enjoyed this.
