Full Synopsis
Magic and murder make dangerous allies.

As a member of the Sacred Coven working with the FBI, Valerie KuriaKen's used to bending traditional rules to protect humanity from supernatural threats. But when a deadly Ascendent attack leaves her coven in shambles and a fellow witch dead, everything changes.

She must navigate a treacherous path between two worlds. Her coven questions her modern methods, sending watchdogs to evaluate her worth. Her growing feelings for FBI Agent Ben Carter only complicate matters further.

But Valerie has bigger problems.

The Ascendents are plotting something massive beneath the streets of Rome and Venice—something involving stolen body parts, demonic rituals, and a mysterious artifact called the Nexus Stone.

With her loyalty to the coven under scrutiny and time running out, Valerie must unravel the Ascendents' plot while proving her methods aren't just effective—they're essential. Because if she fails, the Ascendents won't just win. They'll remake the world in their image.

Will Valerie save humanity and find a way to bridge the divide between tradition and progress? Or will the pressure of serving two masters finally break her?
