Terrified of harming her parents and brother, she runs away from her tiny town in Connecticut all the way to New York, where she hunts down the High Warlock of Brooklyn. Her goal?

Soon enough, she ends up tangled in the budding war upon discovering a protective streak over a certain mundane who got a little too involved in Shadowhunter business. Terrified of seeing another seemingly normal person lose their life to this world of inexplicable magic, she's determined to look after him. But there's some destines that not even a teenager's stubbornness can prevent. And by then, Elle's in too deep.

❛ I'm gnashing my teeth, like a child of Cain . . . . ❜ Rowan Callaway only cares about three things: passing his Calculus exams, his little sister, and The Smiths.

It all starts when Isabella Swan transfers to Forks High School halfway through junior year. There was something jarringly inhuman about Edward that day in their biology lab, and now, Rowan is determined to get to the bottom of the mystery. Maybe his childhood obsession with Sherlock Holmes will finally come in handy. ( © bakerstreets 2025 )
