Winland Underwood is trying to hide in plain sight. Not easy for a witch with a storied past.
The wards and the crystal are back up and running. The residents of East Calico Rock are protected, and the town is safe once again. What does that mean for Winland Underwood?
Next on the to-do list is to look for the Custodian, Hector Fang. And if she finds him, ask about her long-dead mother. Like, is she really dead? What else does he know about the magical history of the town?
If it were only that easy . . .
There's no easy way to track Fang down. The Old Fixer's advice isn't much help either. The young witch needs an item that belonged to them to complete a complicated spell.
Meanwhile, the traitor, Erickson, is still hunting Winland and the Rhazdon refugees.
Will Winland be able to protect the refugees and search for Hector Fang and her mom?
