Äntligen får Aster vara med på flickornas lektioner, och lära sig häxmagi på riktigt! Men han ligger långt efter de andra. Så när mormor Uma erbjuder sig att hjälpa honom säger han glatt ja. Fast det finns en hake. Som tack ska han försöka bota hennes bror Mikasi. Men Aster vill verkligen inte träffa odjuret som nästan dödade honom och hans kusiner. Samtidigt har Asters vän Charlie drabbats av ond magi. Alla häxor får lära sig att det är förbjudet att skapa en ”mara” – en grym skugga som skadar och förstör. Men den varelse som förföljer Charlie visar att någon i byn bryter mot reglerna. Med hjälp av sin familj gör Aster allt han kan för att skydda Charlie. Han vill ta reda på vem som skapar maran och stoppa den. Men då behöver han skaffa sig en mörkare, mer kraftfull magi – från den farligaste häxa han känner … Den hemliga häxan är del två i serien Witchboy – en spännande tecknad serie om magi, drömmar och normer och om de personer som vågar utmana dessa.

Hegas böcker – lätta att läsa. Svåra att motstå.
