A string of lifeless bodies haunt the streets of Moonfell, each one more gruesome than the last. Werewolf gone mad? Possibly. But as the bodies pile up, doubt creeps in. Something about this feels off, and I can’t help but wonder if something more sinister is at play. While I try to unravel the mysteries surrounding Moonfell’s recent deaths, Dash continues to weave in and out of my life with his own secrets and agendas. As the body count rises, a threat looms over my life, and I can’t help but feel like I am walking through a minefield with no way out.

In the ruggedness of the beautiful Kentucky mountains, Honey Lovett has always known that the old ways can make a hard life harder. As the daughter of the famed blue-skinned Troublesome Creek packhorse librarian, Honey and her family have been hiding from the law all her life. But when her mother and father are imprisoned, Honey realizes she must fight to stay free, or risk being sent away for good.

The council says it’s just a trial. A formality. Yeah, and I’m a pixie in a tutu. They’ve summoned every witch in Hollow Cove to stand trial—me, my aunts, every last one of us. Because apparently saving lives, stopping curses, and keeping this town from burning to the ground wasn’t enough to earn a little trust. Something’s off. I can feel it in my witchy bones. Now I’m juggling magical interrogations, secret agendas, and the growing suspicion that this trial isn’t what it seems. Marcus is missing in action. My aunts are one insult away from unleashing hell.

I didn’t think my life could get any worse — but it did. A series of gruesome murders shake New York City, and it’s my job to try and catch the murderous SOBs before they kill their next victim. But something doesn’t smell right. Literally. The deeper I dig, the worse it gets. Turns out these murders are not what they seem. They’re much, much worse. It gets better. A new darkness has risen. Something I’d never faced before and a lot more powerful than me. Yeah, I was shocked too.

Okay, so I'm in trouble. Big trouble. I'm broke. Worse, my boyfriend of five years just dumped me. What do I do? I move in with my three eccentric aunts in their family home, Davenport House. Sounds exciting, only this massive farmhouse likes to eat men. If I were a regular human, I would have run out screaming like a banshee. As a witch - I do absolutely nothing. Hey, maybe they deserved it? I'm back in Hollow Cove, the flamboyant paranormal community, where nymphs, werewolves, trolls, shifters, witches, and other paranormals live comfortable lives away from prying human eyes.

Luzifer hat meine Magie gestohlen. Okay, technisch gesehen hat Derrick, der Inkubus-Trottel, sie genommen, aber er arbeitete für Luzifer und hat Befehle befolgt. Trotzdem kann ich ohne Magie weder eine Hexe noch ein Merlin sein. Kann mein Leben noch schlimmer werden? Natürlich kann es das. Während ich versuche, mich anzupassen und das Leben ohne einen Tropfen Magie in meinen Adern zu akzeptieren, verschwindet Marcus. Na ja, nicht ganz, eher geistert er irgendwo herum. Er antwortet weder auf meine Anrufe noch auf meine Nachrichten.

“Jewel, the moon’s rising!” Mamaw calls to me. “Time for us Moonlighters to go.” Up and down pine-needle trails, through tree-thick woods, and across crooked creeks, Jewel and her grandparents and dozens of people young and old make their way to class. But this school is for grown-ups...

Life is finally settling down—if you count juggling magical crises, a growing family, and the occasional demon encounter as “settling.” But peace doesn’t last long around here. When a string of brutal attacks rocks the town, all signs point to something—or someone—unnatural. And when suspicion falls closer to home than I ever imagined, I realize I’m not just fighting for Hollow Cove’s future. I’m fighting for my family. For the people I love. And for secrets that were never meant to surface.

Ich habe Dashs Platz bei den Verlassenen eingenommen, ohne auch nur einen Moment zu zögern — eine leichtsinnige, impulsive Entscheidung und nicht gerade mein klügster Schachzug. Aber so bin ich nun mal. Jetzt bin ich bis zum bitteren Ende an diese Gruppe gebunden... oder an meinen eigenen Untergang. Töricht? Ja, vielleicht. Aber ich habe noch ein Ass im Ärmel. Wieder einmal befinde ich mich in einem gefährlichen Spiel gegen die Verlassenen, in dem ich darum kämpfe, magische Tafeln zu beschützen, die nicht nur das Schicksal von Moonfell, sondern möglicherweise der ganzen Welt bestimmen.

Life as a new mom was already chaotic. Magic, murder, and mayhem? Just another day in Hollow Cove. But this time? The stakes are a hell of a lot higher. Illegal cursed objects are turning up all over Hollow Cove —and they’re killing people. And if that isn’t bad enough, my son, Darian, isn’t just showing signs of magic. He’s showing way too much of it. So, what’s a witch to do? Easy. Track down the mastermind flooding my town with deadly artifacts, stop them before more bodies pile up, and keep my son out of trouble. No pressure, right?

I thought Gallows Gate couldn’t get any worse after the missing-teen fiasco. Turns out, it can. The Council’s breathing down my neck, dark magic is leaking through the cracks in the veil, and every supernatural creep in town seems to want a piece of me. Lucky me. Now I’m stuck juggling a probationary badge from the Merlin Group, a ghost with boundary issues, and a case that shoves me straight into the crosshairs of Gallows Gate’s most dangerous players.

Broke and living in a one-bedroom apartment the size of a closet is not what you’d expect from an elite hunter like me. But hunting demons and half-breeds isn’t your average nine-to-five job with benefits. The hours are long and the pay usually sucks. I didn’t think I was going to make rent again until the Council, the group of angel-born who’d shunned me all those years ago, offered me a job - a paying one.I could either tell them to shove it, or take the job. So what’s a gal to do? Take the gig, of course.

In 1972 on Mudas Summers's 17th birthday, her beloved mama Ella is found hanging from the rafters of their home. Most people in Peckinpaw, Kentucky, assume that Ella's no-good husband did the deed. Others think Ella grew tired of his abuse and did it herself. Muddy is determined to find out for sure either way, especially once she finds strange papers hidden among her mama's possessions

Glass Ferry, Kentucky, is bourbon country. Whiskey has been a way of life for generations, enabling families to provide and survive even in the darkest times. Flannery Butler's daddy, Beauregard "Honey Bee" Butler, entrusted her with his recipes before he passed on, swearing her to secrecy. But Flannery is harboring other secrets too, about her twin sister Patsy, older by eight minutes and pretty in a way Flannery knows she'll never be. Then comes the prom night when Patsy - wearing a yellow chiffon dress and the family pearls - disappears along with her date.

Nameless, Kentucky, in 1969 is a hardscrabble community where jobs are few and poverty is a simple fact - just like the hot Appalachian breeze or the pests that can wipe out a tobacco field in days. RubyLyn Bishop is luckier than some. Her God-fearing uncle, Gunnar, has a short fuse and high expectations, but he's given her a good home ever since she was orphaned at the age of five. Yet now, a month shy of her 16th birthday, RubyLyn itches for more.

Nach Moonfell zurückzukehren, war nicht Teil meines Plans gewesen, und es hatte mein Leben völlig verändert. Ein neues Haus. Neue Freunde. Und das Wiedersehen mit meiner exzentrischen Tante brachte etwas Freude in meine Seele zurück. Ich schaffte es sogar, ab und zu ein Lächeln zustande zu bringen. Gerade als ich dachte, die Dinge könnten nicht noch komplizierter werden, gerate ich in einen Zwiespalt zwischen meiner Pflicht als Ermittlerin und meinen wachsenden Gefühlen für den rätselhaften Dash — den Nicht-Werwolf. Er hat uns vor der Bedrohung gerettet, die als Die Verlassenen bekannt ist.

Vor zwanzig Jahren bin ich aus meiner Heimatstadt Moonfell geflohen, einer paranormalen Gemeinschaft in den Vororten von New York, die vor den Augen der Menschen verborgen ist. Ein Ort, von dem ich mir geschworen hatte, nie wieder an ihn zurückzukehren. Aber der grausame Mord an einem jungen Werwolf hat mich zurückgebracht. Und ich bin hier, um den Fall zu lösen. Als ich tiefer in den Fall eindringe, wird mir klar, dass dies kein gewöhnlicher Mord ist. Jemand oder etwas hat es auf die paranormale Gemeinschaft abgesehen.

I was engaged. Okay, so I wasn't technically engaged. But I did fantasize about it. A lot. Okay, all the time. No need to pretend. The only problem here was when couples got engaged, there was usually a proposal of sorts, an exchange of promises, and a mutual agreement to spend the rest of their lives together. But three weeks have now passed since the night I found that black box with that pretty ring, and still, the chief hasn't proposed. But I've got worse problems. A mysterious and ominous curse spreads across our town, and we don't know who's responsible or why it's happening.
