The Scot, the Witch and the Wardrobe Salem, Massachusetts Like her female ancestors before her, Victoria Cartwright inherits the key to the bewitched contents of her family's mysterious attic wardrobe ... except that no one has ever succeeded in opening it. Only the daughter who inherits her ancestor's magic will be able to turn the key ... meet her destiny ... and complete her ancestor's spell. Caperglen, Scotland A pariah in his own village, like his ancestors before him, Rory MacKenzie is searching for the carousel unicorn that his many-great grandfather carved and was bewitched into giving away. Bringing the family treasure back and reuniting it with the other eleven zodiac figures will satisfy the locals who were raised with the daft notion that the unicorn will restore the village prosperity that died the day the unicorn was shipped to America. But all Rory wants is to restore the MacKenzie name to dignity. When a carousel unicorn with the sign of Aquarius beneath its forelock shows up on the Antiques Roadshow, Rory heads to Salem, Massachusetts to see if Miss Victoria Cartwright's unicorn has the hidden compartment that his ancestor carved beneath the saddle. Rory could easily fall under Victoria's spell, he soon realizes, but he refuses to be bewitched by the descendent of the witch who ruined his family in the first place ... if that's who she is. Unfortunately, she's not making it easy for him to get his hands on the locked, glass-encased treasure.
