English | score: 1 Rachel, die Hexe und Dämonenjägerin, hat den Verlust ihres Geliebten (s. auch Band 6 in BA 1/10) noch nicht überwunden. Mithilfe ihrer Freunde Ivy und Jenks, sie eine Vampirin und er ein winziger Elf, versucht sie weiter, den Mord an ihm aufzuklären. Ihre Bewegungsfreiheit ist jedoch stark eingeschränkt, weil sie bei einem Dämon in der Pflicht steht und regelmäi︢g Zauberaufgaben für ihn zu erfüllen hat. Als mehrere Menschen tot aufgefunden werden, wird Rachel von den behördlichen Dämonenjägern hinzugezogen. Sie findet heraus, dass eine Banshee, eine bösartige, Seelen aussaugende Fee, in Cincinnati ihr Unwesen treibt. Die Fee Mia hat auch eine kleine Tochter, die schon die todbringenden Eigenschaften der Banshees besitzt. Um dieses monströse Wesen unschädlich zu machen, beginnt eine hochdramatische und verzweifelte Verfolgungsjagd. Um die Anzahl nichtmenschlicher Figuren des Romans auszuweiten, bedient sich die Autorin immer wieder aus dem gälischen Sagenkreis. Einlesezeit in die komplexe, schaurige Welt wird notwendig sein.
