Rake and Makenna finally visit her hometown of Weird Sisters, North Carolina in this book, and let me tell you, it was worth the wait. Shearin answers so many questions that she's left open-ended in the previous books, like who Makenna's father is and how she got her powers (especially the non-standard ones for her seers). I loved getting to see our favorite goblin dark mage work to charm the matriarch of the Fraser family, who is the quintessential southern grandma. I don't want to give any spoilers, but the ending of this book suggests where the next book will be set and who will appear, and I can't wait to read it.
About the Book
As an agent of Supernatural Protection & Investigations (SPI), I know that evil doesn't take a vacation, but this time it made an exception and followed me on mine.I'm Makenna Fraser, seer for SPI, and I'm taking my boyfriend, goblin dark mage Rake Danescu, home for the holidays to meet my family. Weird Sisters is a small town in the North Carolina mountains that was built on a network of ley lines that magnify psychic and paranormal energies. It doesn't show up on Google Maps, was named after the three witches in Macbeth, and the first word of the town name perfectly describes most of its human and supernatural citizens. A stranger has come to town, bringing with him a dormant source of primordial evil. Soon, magically gifted locals start vanishing, and the power of the ley lines is turned against us, cutting us off from the outside world and any source of help. For a town and its people steeped in magic, and my family sworn to protect both, it's a race against time to use a local winter solstice phenomenon to free the town from its prison. But first, I must trust a father I've never known to fight and defeat an awakening evil that's existed since the beginning of time. If we fail, and it is unleashed, the world will not survive.
