Known as the wicked witch of Russian fairy tales, Baba Yaga is not one woman, but rather a title carried by a chosen few. They keep the balance of nature and guard the borders of our world, but don't make the mistake of crossing one of them...

Barbara Yager has mostly adjusted to her new life, which includes settling down in a rural farmhouse with her husband Liam and their adopted daughter Babs. She and Liam rescued Babs from captivity in the enchanted Otherworld a few years ago, and the young girl has had some adjusting of her own to do, although as a magical Baba Yaga in training, she was never going to be a completely normal child anyway. Barbara thinks that's just fine.

But things get complicated when Babs asks a startling question at dinner one night, and then turns up with two unexpected companions who have the power to upset all their entire lives if the situation isn't handled very, very carefully. With the help of her sister Baba Yagas and their three Chudo-Yudos (dragons disguised as two gigantic dogs and one huge cat), Barbara, Babs, and their extended family must venture into the Otherworld to find the answers they need.

Before the High Queen decides she will provide her own answers, which rarely works out well for anyone.
