To prove his worth, the detective must solve the murder of a Drow with a mysterious past. But as he delves deeper into the investigation, he uncovers a sinister plot that could destroy everything he holds dear.

There's a demigod on a quest for vengeance who is hunting Emily for her new magic. If Heka gets his way, her team will be nothing but collateral damage. The god of magic has eyes and ears everywhere, watching Emily. Heka's network of human prey form a secret undead surveillance system. And they could be literally anyone. Not good.

Scarlett Prynne, Runeclaw, The Spell Riders, and the Witches on Wheels beat down the Chrome Ghosts and disrupted the Luminous Veil's plans once again. The Veil didn't like that. Not one murderous bit. And if Scarlett shows up in their sights again, they won't hold back. And, of course, Scarlett being who she is, she's looking for an opportunity to do just that. The Veil's mind control collars are a looming threat, and Scarlett and her allies are doing their best to get the dirt on them. Step one is breaking into the mansion of the one Bald Baddie they've identified.

The race is on to find answers before the worst happens and one of their own falls. After Charlotte heads to the docks in search of the infamous and most mischievous of former lost boys, she realizes her visit with Pan only raises more questions than answers. Just when their search for knowledge leads them back to Ginger's forest to find the witch herself, they realize something is very wrong.

Scarlett Prynne and her magical black cat partner are in the crosshairs. Again. This time it's the mysterious group of bald baddies allied with Darrin Redthorn, who's been busy stripping magical metal out of the Earth. Double trouble. Darrin is no more, courtesy of the bald baddies. They're eager to send our favorite witch to the same fate. They have their reasons. Maybe it's because Scarlett is hot on the trail of missing college students in Provo, Utah, and all signs point to the bald men with wands as the culprits. Some bad guys don't know when to give up.

Heka, the ancient god of magic, has grand plans and thanks to Dr. Semenov, Heka knows exactly where to start. Black-market weapons manufacturers and dealers. And his plans aren't for the good of the world. Meanwhile, Emily Trigger and the Prodigal Suns are impatiently waiting for a spell to work so they can track down Heka. They're using the time to figure out the mechanics of Emily's new magic and how they can use it.

The "Bald Baddies," officially known as the Luminous Veil, have big plans to control the minds of the rich and powerful. Scarlett's travels have made her a roadblock, which can't be allowed. The fight against Darrin Redthorn and his minions was nothing compared to what these thugs bring to the party. They're magically powerful and utterly vicious. And they have friends. Runeclaw's leap into the enemy's portal has denied them one of their gathering spaces. But a group this powerful, this old, surely has some in reserve.

Shifters to the left, gangsters to the right . . . Cait Keane and her dragon partner Aza are stuck in the middle. The problems are mounting for the newest member of Boston's US Marshals. Her coven is pressed by territorial shifters, and the wolves have a secret partner who has plans of her own. Cait might even be the target of the assassin she helped arrest—before his escape. Or maybe it is just a lone criminal with a grudge who's after Judge Flynn. Cait's not buying it.

Dark forces and powerful, all-too-familiar enemies are out to kidnap Sophie and steal her elemental powers. They'll stop at nothing to get their revenge.

It's time Halsey and Brigham to travel back to where the changes all began—the Cliffs of Moher, Ireland. At the very least, the monster hunters should be able to find out what happened to the stolen silver coffin if they follow the clues in person, right? If you have to get something done, sometimes you have to do it all yourself. Even if that means operating outside your Council's orders without permission. The Ambrosius cousins seem to hit one dead end after another. But when one magical door shuts, another always opens.

Winland Underwood wasn't gone long from East Calico Rock, but a lot has changed. The least of which is the citizens were able to capture the Silver Griffin traitor, Erickson, without her. But more refugees keep arriving, and the town is expanding. Erickson wasn't the only threat to everyone's safety. Can the young witch leave them alone while she searches for her mother? Or will a hidden menace move in while she's gone?

In Hollywood it's not about what you know, but who you know. Norah Wintry is finding that out. You try running a talent agency full of wizards and shifters. Oh my. Who she knows is starting to pay off when she goes looking for answers about who, or what, is trying to sabotage her clients. But LaLa Land operates on a pecking order. Will anyone tell her what she wants to know, or will they run her in circles? One thing is for sure. No one wants to reveal who UrbanWurm is or where he is. Too risky. And it's more than a juicy role that's on the line.

The Roses and the Dragons are at each other's throats after a failed assassination attempt brings their simmering feud to a boil. The assassin that ruined Cait's first day on the job has become a force to be reckoned with—and he's got her square in his sights. That's okay. She's got weapons aimed at him, too. Did we mention there's a dragon? But wait. The shifters are increasing the pressure, trying to force everyone off their land. The mysterious master thief is calling in his favor. And Cait's newly unlocked power means family trouble ahead.

Winland Underwood may have met her match. Is Fang a friend or foe? Even his arctic fox is more than she seems, and Winland's getting mixed signals. From everywhere. Now she's one step closer to tracking down the warrior witch, and the good-looking Wizard at her side is only too eager to help. But can the young Light Elf sense the danger creeping toward the wards around her town—from three states away?

Winland Underwood is trying to hide in plain sight. Not easy for a witch with a storied past. The wards and the crystal are back up and running. The residents of East Calico Rock are protected, and the town is safe once again. What does that mean for Winland Underwood? Next on the to-do list is to look for the Custodian, Hector Fang. And if she finds him, ask about her long-dead mother. Like, is she really dead? What else does he know about the magical history of the town?

A battle is won but the challenges for Winland Underwood and the residents of East Calico Rock have just begun. Can the old Fixer's daughter keep the hidden magicals safe? It's not easy relocating to a ghost town in Arkansas. It's even harder when the city sits on top of a forgotten underground lair. But even that can be handled as long as the town remains a secret. A magical gem is discovered by the teens that can give them everything they desire. That can't be a bad thing, right? For a city that's trying to stay hidden, it can be.

Leira Berens is settling into the new house in DC, making new friends and setting up house with Correk and the troll. But there's a monster loose in two worlds. Wolfstan Humphrey is looking for a seat at every table and he's making the rounds. Will he take the deal from the Dark Families and hunt down Leira? Or will an old enemy, Axiom, make him a better offer? It's Wolfstan. The magical from hell. He'll try and take both and create chaos wherever he goes.

Norah Wintry is putting her magical Hollywood talent agency to good use. Find someone who really loves Garton Saxon to kiss him and bring him out of his cursed sleep. But with ex-wives, and too many people claiming to really love him, it's harder than it sounds.

Just fourteen days to turn a replica of Henry VIII's castle into a real-life horror movie set, complete with magical monsters. It will be a challenge, but nothing Norah can't handle.

Will Sophie harness a new curiosity in pursuit of the truth about them both?

Things are heating up in LaLa Land. Nothing makes tongues wag faster than rumors of a cursed movie set. These aren't special effects. Someone or something magical is at play. The attacks on suppliers of Pink Fairy continue. Norah needs to track down who's responsible and put an end to the problems for good. Domenico is safely hidden away deep below the surface of the Ocean, but Norah can't shake the feeling that something is wrong. She needs to get information about what's going on and the best way to get information about Domenico is to ask a bunch of criminals. That's easier said than done.
