Synopsis

Frances has spent the months since the battle between the Sons of St. Druon and the witches of Haxahaven living quietly. She teaches young witches and tends the garden inside the walls of Haxahaven Academy. One thing unsettles her: her magic has started to behave strangely.

When a chance to travel to Paris comes up, she takes it, hoping for adventure and for answers about her power. Her classmates Maxine and Lena go with her. In the city she learns that the spell she once used to speak to her dead brother had a terrible cost. It tore the veil between the living and the dead.

A group of magicians now exploits that rift for their own profit, and people are paying for it. Frances sets out to repair the damage, protect those at risk and save her own magic. Her search leads her into the salons of secret societies, through the Louvre and down into the catacombs.

She cannot manage it alone. Her only option is to work with the one person she vowed never to trust again, which puts her at risk of another betrayal and of losing her life.

This is historical fantasy and the sequel to The Witch Haven. Family secrets and lost loves run through a plot that moves from a quiet school to a busy, dangerous city.
