Eighth-grader Stewart's life is turned upside down when a mysterious new teacher begins dating his father. Convinced she's using witchcraft to control events, Stewart and his friends attempt to expose the truth. The kids' perspective on how adults manipulate one another into marriage is belabored and too young for their age, but readers may relate to Stewart's conflicting emotions.
