A missing brother. A desperate detective. A small-town secret with teeth.
When Detective Derek Reed asks Arabella for help finding his brother, her witchy instincts flare—this case is bigger than it looks. Clues point to a hidden cult dabbling in dark magic, leaving symbols that circle back to Arabella’s own family. Grandma Gigi knows more than she’ll say, and every answer unravels another secret.
As Arabella and Derek close in, the cult strikes first, capturing them and forcing Arabella into a deadly game where only her untapped power—and nerve—can tip the scales. With time running out, she must unlock her magic, face a vengeful leader, and end a feud that could destroy everyone she loves.
Can Arabella crack the mystery and master her gifts before it’s too late—or will the cult claim its next victim?
