Plot synopsis[edit]
Cassie (Britt Robertson) is run off of the road by another driver on the way home which leads to a flat tire. Unknown to Cassie, her mother, Amelia Blake, is about to see the last of this world. An unknown stranger is outside of Cassie's residence playing with matches as a fire breaks out in the kitchen inside. Cassie looses her mother in what she believes is an accident.
One month later, Cassie, still dealing with her mother's death, is traveling to her grandmother's house in Chance Harbor. Cassie meets her new friends during her first day of school: Adam Conant (Thomas Dekker) a handsome man who seems to have this pull to Cassie, Diana Meade (Shelley Hennig) who is Adam's girlfriend and the leader of the group, Faye Chamberlain (Phoebe Tonkin) a young and all around rebel, Melissa Glaser (Jessica Parker Kennedy) Faye's sidekick, and Nick Armstrong (Louis Hunter) her next door neighbor.
Unknown to Cassie, this group of kids make up a coven of witches, and try to pull Cassie into the mix so they can all experience the full effects of their magic. They call this the Circle and is only at its best if Cassie joins. Cassie does not warm up to the experience when Faye tries to draw out Cassie's powers by lighting Cassie's car on fire with magic.
Cassie ponders whether she will join them or not, and all while dark secrets surface such as Diana's father is the man that was outside Amelia's house during her death. Along with these secrets, Cassie is revealed to be more of a puppet for the Adult generation of witches that were thought to have sworn off witchcraft after a bad accident long ago.
