It was bad enough that Becky witnessed a brutal murder at an ice skating rink when she was six. Far worse was that no one else saw it or believed her. No one else could see the monster who did it or his young victim. Becky was cursed to see things that no one else could. In a world of hidden magic and invisible monsters, Becky could see. Not that this helped her social life.
Becky is a magical detective in a world of monsters and magic veiled from human eyes. While most people can't see the vampires, werewolves, and spirits, Becky's eyes are wide open. Unlike other magical detectives, she doesn't have spells or magical objects to protect her. She just has her brains, her friends, and her knowledge earned through lots of trauma.
