Wednesday has made it as far as university, strange as ever. She has found a major that suits her, and is excelling in both the practical and the theory elements of her course.
The one thing that she isn’t excelling at, is love.
Until she meets Wormwood.
***
Life after the Wormwoods was a sweet paradise of books. Matilda had everything that she could hope for in a family, and it was hard to move away, but she had to grow up. There's only so much honey that one person can take.
One Major in Literature, another in History, she's set to be the highest graduating student of the year. And just as it has always been, she is shunned for it by everyone.
Except the peculiar girl with skin so pale it seems bloodless, and waist length raven hair in two stern braids.
10 years on Matilda and Wednesday have a quaint little bookshop and a quiet, comfortable married life.
But there are people still in the world who wish the worst for them, and when an unusual stranger comes into the shop with a note for Wednesday Matilda breaks one of the oldest rules of magic.
Don't speak Latin in front of the books
She is thrown into a strange new world, and Wednesday (with Thing for backup) must find a way to go after her wife whilst the Addams' seek the writer of the note to settle matters on the surface themselves.
