In Duskwood's shadowy underworld, high school outcasts Damon Derron and Zane Cuwait, both born into families of occult origin, run a group called The Circle-a gang that they teach to wield demonaltry; the dark art of summoning demons to seize power. Bound by ancient rites and forbidden pacts, their thirst for influence drives them into a perilous web of danger and deceit. The demons they summon offer incredible power, but it always comes at a horrific price, slowly eroding their moral compasses and binding them tighter to dark forces.
Their quest for dominance sets The Circle on a collision course with rival gangs vying for control of Daytona's criminal underbelly. The Revsnakes, led by the formidable and enigmatic Rocky Vega, emerge as fierce adversaries. With sinister secrets of their own, the Revsnakes threaten to unravel The Circle's carefully laid plans.
Caught in the crossfire is Skyla Vauxdale, a former demonaltrist turned witch and Damon's ethereal ex-girlfriend. Skyla struggles with her identity, torn between her lingering love for Damon and her morality.
As supernatural forces close in and the pressure mounts, Daytona teeters on the brink of chaos. Damon's relentless ambition and unyielding drive lead him to take increasingly desperate and dangerous measures.
In Crown of Ash, loyalties fracture and alliances shift like sand. Damon, Zane, and Skyla are ensnared in a harrowing tale of power, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of identity amidst dark magic. Each must confront their inner demons and make sacrifices that will shape their destinies. As old bonds are tested and new enemies arise, they must decide whether to rise from the ashes of their own making or be consumed by the darkness they have unleashed.
