When Jason Stoles is found dead inside a cauldron in the town square, his blood drained and a strange crescent moon inside a triangle burned into his wrist, Rory realizes this is no ordinary killing. With her best friend Maeve at her side, she begins following a trail of vampire clues, forbidden magic, suspicious witches, and secrets hidden deep within Willowbark.
But the deeper Rory digs, the more dangerous the mystery becomes. Someone knows about her family. Someone knows about the mysterious symbol. And the mark eventually appears on Connor Griffin, the historian who has unexpectedly become one of Rory’s closest allies.
A murder must be solved—but Rory may have just uncovered the first clue to the disappearance of her own parents.
