Genius Consultants has it all, wealthy clients, glamorous receptionist and some talented genies to speed up its workload.
Amethyst Oleander is clumsy, hides her unruly purple hair in a plait, and doesn’t know anything about genies. She has more important things to worry about, like finding her missing brother, Ben.
When their disparate worlds collide, mayhem ensues as Amethyst causes mishaps, kisses a genie, and falls off things she probably shouldn’t have been on. But the company has dark secrets and as they begin to unravel, she finds herself in danger. Who can she trust? What must she do to save Ben before he’s lost forever, and when will she discover her strange hair has far more significance than she ever realised?

Author Bio:
Essie Foxford lives near Manchester in England, and yes, it does rain a lot, much to the delight of her three ducks.
Her writing veers away from the overly serious, tending towards romance, adventure and humour with a sprinkling of unusual characters who are in theory fantastical, but can you ever be sure?
A Twist of Amethyst is the first book in the series of Genius Consultants (a company that employs genies who can now work for themselves). The second book in the series, A Kiss of Crystal, is due out Spring 2026.
