An unsolved murder in the middle of downtown Sydney.
A deadly attack on the city's Sidhe community.
Sidhe sorcerer Riann Donovan has fled a tragic past in the U.S. and established herself in Sydney, Australia, as a photojournalist. Called to work a murder scene, she learns the victim is Sidhe and finds herself on the run from a swarm of demons and Fomhoire conjurers.
She turns for help to Carrie Pelsher—new in the city, not Sidhe but possessed of a mysterious affinity for magic.
Together they are drawn into a war as old as history itself, caught between forces ancient and deadly, all of them pursuing a treasure of unimaginable power. Failure would mean armageddon; success prolongs the conflict for another day.
Our world stands poised on the edge of a blade.
