From the Back Cover:
Phoebe, I think you should have your sister do the spell. She could see if it might work to bring her and the bloke from America back together again.”
I shook my head. I want to visit the places in the spell.”
What? Why?” Ned asked, clearly confused. Who do you want to bring closer to you?”
My sister!”
Now Ned laughed. But she lives with you. You can’t get much closer than that, can you?”
Not closer physically,” I explained. The letter says, it works for distance between two people in more ways than one.’ Alice and I used to be really close. Like friends, you know? Now we can hardly stand each other. And I want to fix that before she goes all the way to America.” I grabbed his arm. Ned, will you go with me? Around London, and help me find each place on the list? You love a fun adventure, don’t you?”
He took another sweet and popped it in his mouth. That I do.”
