Oh my! The title itself makes the book sound interesting

So we have magic, concealment charms, talking books and a boy that is thinking about the Prophecy. Add in a woman cut in half in the library that has left Mrs. Webb screaming and Dylan wretching. Ivy Gamble is a private investigator and she has been asked to investigate the murder at the academy in which her sister teaches. Sounds like a book of intrigue and mystery, along with the magic.
