Camille DeAngelis sells magical second novel to Shaye Areheart

Camille DeAngelis sold Petty Magic to Shaye Areheart at Random House's Shaye Areheart Books, "in a very nice deal," via agent Kate Garrick at DeFiore and Company. The book is about a retired spy and elderly witch who uses her magic to retrieve her youth and seduce young men, until her sister is accused of murder and she must juggle the onerous task of clearing her sister's name and a new romance with a handsome young man who bears an uncanny resemblance to the love she lost in Nazi Germany nearly seventy years ago."

DeAngelis's debut novel, Mary Modern (which Shaye Areheart published last summer), tells the story of a genetic researcher working in her basement lab who accidentally creates a 22-year-old woman.
