After stealing back the Focus from her ex-boyfriend Nick and getting Jenks's son Jax to come home, Rachel Morgan must hide the artifact and hope it won't start an interspecies war. Enter David Hue, Rachel's werewolf Alpha (for insurance purposes only). The Focus is a curse which cannot stand being in the possession of anyone other than a were and Rachel asks for David's help in containing it and maintaining the balance.
When a series of murders snakes through Cincinnati Rachel and Ivy are called in to investigate. All signs point to David attempting to tilt the balance. But Rachel, again, has bigger problems. Female demon Newt is back and causing chaos. When she somehow de-sanctifies the church Vampiric Charms calls home they no longer have that extra layer of security--a needed layer now that Piscary is back on the loose.
Rachel can, somehow, twist demon curses and both Newt and Trent Kalamack want her help. Newt isn't sure what she's discovered in Rachel, but it triggers something through the insanity and Newt's remembers--what, she doesn't remember. But Newt is intent on finding her missing memory and manages to de-sanctify the church where Rachel lives with Ivy and Jenks.
When the vampires join the fray and Piscary takes his revenge the Vampiric Charms staff is rocked. Not everyone makes it out, and the aftermath continues to follow Rachel.
Rachel and Ivy fight to maintain their friendship and still help the other find their safe space. The drama surrounds the Focus and maintaining the balance between Interlanders. Newt and Al make appearances, but Rachel is generally kept from demonic society and politics.
