In the volatile, magic-infused world of Atlanta, where ancient spells ebb and flow with the tides, mercenary Kate Daniels finds her hands full with supernatural emergencies. As a reluctant operative for the Order of Merciful Aid, Kate thought she’d seen it all, but nothing prepares her for the horrifying discovery of her werewolf friend, Derek, left for dead. His brutal attack catapults Kate into her most perilous investigation yet, forcing her to navigate the treacherous underbelly of Atlanta's preternatural society.

A dark plot threatens to shatter the fragile peace among the shapeshifting communities and forever alter the face of Atlanta's magical landscape. With Derek's life hanging in the balance and the city on the brink of chaos, Kate must unleash her full power to unmask the masterminds behind the Games before their nefarious scheme tears her world apart.
