Elizabethan England is a time of superstition and strange goings on. If you have a problem, it’s common to go to a witch for help. And Queen Elizabeth ɪ is no different… When Daisy — a precocious young witch — learns of the death of the Queen’s Royal Witch, she flies to London to audition as her replacement. But Daisy is from a poor family, and they don’t let just anyone into the Royal Court. The only way into the palace is to take a job as a cleaner. As Daisy makes herself known, she’ll prove she’s quite capable to help the queen. After all, Daisy represents a wild card — one that may decide the fate of many. With so many wanting her to fail, Daisy will need all her grit and determination to make it through her adventures — not to mention a sense of daring and adventure…
