The 1776 Scroll by Louise Harris
Living alone in Philadelphia, 19-year-old Charlie Schofield struggles to repair the shattered relationships in her life while fighting for her spot in the Magical Strike Force Academy. She takes up with a lonely friend who secretly knows that Charlie is in danger. An evil wizard plots against Charlie over powerful magic locked in a scroll. When Charlie cannot open the scroll to release the magic, the wizard hatches a new plan to discredit her in court using more conventional means: she’s to prove herself insane and the scroll a hoax. Will Charlie unlock the magic in the scroll before the wizard goes free? Will she prove that she was the victim and not the perpetrator of a crime? Or will the court decide that she is nothing more than an attention-grabbing witch? It is a race against outer forces and inner demons.
