### Premise:

In the magical village of Whispering Pines, antique restorer Delia Brightwater wants nothing more than a quiet life in her shop, mending heirlooms with careful magic. Her plans unravel when her opinionated talking cat familiar, Percival, insists something is *very* wrong on the eve of the Annual Moonlight Maker’s Faire. When beloved quilter Zinnia Copperfield’s one-of-a-kind Dream Weave Quilt is stolen—with the fair judges due to arrive and the sheriff calling it “low priority”—Delia and Percival decide to investigate themselves.

What begins as a favor spirals into a tangle of craft rivalries, festival sabotage, and subtle magical tampering that even starts to corrupt Delia’s own restoration work. With her professional reputation on the line and the village’s signature festival at risk, Delia must untangle red herrings, outwit a jealous rival crafter, and navigate an abandoned craft warehouse in a high-stakes climax. With Percival’s sharp tongue and sharper instincts, and the support of their oddball neighbors, Delia recovers the quilt, restores the town’s trust, and helps Whispering Pines celebrate under a magical aurora—proving that community, craft, and chosen family are the real magic.
