In a town of magic and monsters, the smallest mystery can spark the biggest trouble. Life in Witchlight Cove should finally be settling down. The Eternal Flame burns bright again, my PI business is growing, and for once the magical town I was born to protect isn’t in crisis. Of course, things aren’t all roses and puppies. My best friend Maddie is struggling with the powerful magic at Witchlight’s heart, and I’m starting to worry the Flame might be affecting her in ways none of us can control. Then a witch’s familiar vanishes without a trace. When the trail ends at the very edge of Witchlight’s protective wards, it becomes clear this is no ordinary disappearance. Someone took the cat. And in a town full of witches, shifters, fae and vampires, that raises a very dangerous question. Why would anyone steal a familiar? As I investigate, old grudges resurface and magical politics turn ugly. What started as a missing pet begins to look like something far more dangerous. If I don’t uncover the truth quickly, it won’t just be one life at risk … Witchlight Cove itself could be in danger. With my fiercely loyal retriever by my side and magic now crackling at my fingertips, I’m about to learn just how far someone will go to keep their secrets hidden.
