Christmas Day. A massacre. And a war no one is ready for.

Sloane West arrives in the coastal town of Kirkcudbright, Scotland, too late to save the Gòrdan Protector Coven. Two are dead. One is left alive—but stripped of speech and secrets alike. When a third Gòrdan is found murdered in Denwick Cemetery, the message is clear: the Order is no longer operating from the shadows. It’s escalating.

Outmatched for the first time in her career, Sloane faces an impossible truth. The West Coven cannot stop what’s coming on their own. To survive, they must do the unthinkable—ally with other Magical defenders and risk exposing the hidden world to Nogical eyes. Failure means more than death. It means the return of every demon the Gòrdans ever banished to the abyss.

As alliances fracture and ancient protections fall, Sloane is pulled into a reckoning far closer to home. The truth about her father—long buried and carefully hidden—threatens to unravel everything she believes about herself and her power.

With two worlds on the brink of collapse and enemies closing in from every side, Sloane must decide how much she’s willing to lose to stop the coming darkness. Because this time, magic alone may not be enough.
