Stories, sisters, and a traveling bookshop bus

After their mother’s death, Elfie and her two sisters travel through small towns in France in a converted bookshop bus. Elfie’s inherited grimoire draws its magic from the stories she writes, linking her creative work to the discovery of her family’s magical legacy and secrets about her mother. The graphic novel combines everyday stops on the sisters’ journey—including a seaside village—with spells and comic mishaps, while keeping the family relationship central. Its French setting also brings in elements of the country’s history.
