Clara can’t believe her no-nonsense grandmother has just up and moved to Florida leaving Clara and her mother on their own. This means her mother can finally “follow her bliss”. This involves moving to a tiny apartment in Kensington Market. And working at a herbal remedy shop and trying to develop her so-called mystical powers.

Clara tries to make the best of a bad situation. She joins the newspaper staff at her new middle school. Here she can sharpen her investigative journalistic skills and tell the kind of hard-news stories her grandmother appreciated. But the editor relegates her to boring news stories and worse . . . the horoscopes.

Worse yet, her horoscopes come true, and soon everyone at school is talking about Clara Voyant, the talented fortune-teller. Clara is horrified — horoscopes and clairvoyance aren’t real, she insists, just like her grandmother always told her. But when a mystery unfolds at school, she finds herself in a strange situation. She has an opportunity to prove herself as an investigative journalist . . . with the help of her own mystical powers.
