Freedom comes with a price.
It's been over a year since Patrick O'Malley escaped the clutches of madman Loman O'Connor, yet grisly dreams make it seem like yesterday. His nightmarish ordeal left him with a damaged body, severely weakened magic, and a shattered psyche. It also gifted him with a burning desire to find Loman's previous victims and offer them a semblance of normalcy.
Fionola Bohannon's brother, Tadhg, is missing again. The first time, he fell into the clutches of a man hellbent on stealing other witches' powers to fuel his own. This time feels eerily similar, and Fi seeks the one person who might possess the means to find him: surly, battle-worn Patrick O'Malley.
As Patrick and Fi delve into Tadhg's whereabouts, a chilling mystery unfolds. The very people he sought to rescue have begun to disappear inexplicably, and only by returning to where it all started will they find the key to free everyone, themselves included.
