Out Of The Ordinary

In Molly Gurney's chaotic, lively home where her mother is always busy with children, neighbours, kittens and hens, domestic needs always come first. No wonder Molly considers herself to be very ordinary! However, Molly is anything but ordinary. When, in a fit of boredom, she writes an advertisement for a job--"quests undertaken, lost things found, enchantments broken"--and doesn't even send it to the newspaper, it leads her to a magical tryst far beyond her cosy home. First a small child is dumped without warning on the Gurneys' doorstep. Though Molly is used to sharing her home with foster children, Floris wasn't sent by the social services, who can't trace his origins. And there is something even more mysterious about him. To protect the child, Molly has to enter a world of dangerous witchcraft, in which her only ally is the devastatingly handsome musician, Icarus.
