Danielle "Dannie" Eastman, life in her dull small town is a grinding cycle of waiting tables in the off-season and guiding hunting parties through the wilderness. Every penny she scrimps and saves is a ticket to a world of adventure she fears she'll never actually see. But Dannie's quiet desperation is shattered when she is summoned to the reading of the will for her beloved Aunt Helen, who vanished four years ago under violent, unexplained circumstances.
Expecting a modest inheritance, Dannie is instead plunged into a breathtaking, impossible reality- she is not just human.
Thrust into a hidden world teeming with shifters, ethereal Fae, powerful spellcasters, lethal vampires, and ancient mythical beasts, she is placed under the fierce guidance of Vivica Johnston, the battle-hardened leader of the Nemelatro battalion and a loyal friend to Aunt Helen.
Dannie tries to navigate a world she is completely ignorant to, slowly peeling back the layers of a brewing, unseen turmoil. Every clue she uncovers about her aunt's disappearance reveals a darker truth about the society her blood has been sworn to protect.
The small-town hunting guide must learn to navigate a maze of shifting political allegiances, cosmic duties, and intoxicating desires. Dannie must solve the mystery of Aunt Helen's fate before the hidden cracks in supernatural society shatter the world entirely.
