How many more skeletons are in my family’s closet?
I’m about to find out.
Life doesn’t get more stressful than magical training with my mother Barbara, knight extraordinaire. She wants to make sure my teenage daughter Regan and I are ready for any fae headed our way. That means running laps for miles, endless pushups, and, of course, yelling. Lots and lots of yelling.
I’ll grin and bear it if it makes us stronger. Our enemies will definitely not pull any punches, not when Regan’s existence holds the literal key to the Old Realm, the fae’s homeland.
But when Barbara insists we train at a secluded monastery, her tragic past comes back to haunt her. My gargoyle boss Gabriel warns me not to go, but we have no choice if we want to go toe-to-toe with the fae pursuing us.
I just hope it’s worth the price Barbara wants us to pay.
