The borders of Lychford are crumbling. Other realities threaten to seep into the otherwise quiet village, and the resident wise woman is struggling to remain wise. The local magic shop owner and the local priest are having troubles of their own.

And a mysterious stranger is on hand to offer a solution to everyone's problems. No cost, no strings (she says).

But as everyone knows, free wishes from strangers rarely come without a price . . .

Reviews

Praise for The Lights Go Out in Lychford

"[The Lights Go Out in Lychford] balances gracefully on the border of cozy small town mystery and cosmic horror . . . It’s a small book that packs a solid narrative punch."Booklist

"Captivating . . . Written with Cornell’s characteristic verve, Lychford buzzes with its own magic, and its characters brim with life. Series fans will be shocked and moved by the developments in this efficient story, and look forward to the next."Publishers Weekly
