In Nevermore, Texas, witches and wizards live side by side with humans. But when a woman with magical powers is taken hostage, the residents of Nevermore find themselves divided . . .
Lenore Whyte's blood might be able to open a portal to the underworld, but she doesn't understand how to wield the powerful magic bound within her-knowledge that would have come in handy when she was kidnapped in order to be sacrificed.
Tormented by nightmares of a woman's death, Sheriff Taylor Mooreland is shocked to find the woman from his visions chained to an altar in the woods. He barely knows her, but something compels Taylor to protect the mysterious Lenore, no matter what. Even if it means dealing with magic, which he's always avoided. And when an investigation into a series of suicides leads Taylor deep into the town's past, he discovers that the keys to saving Lenore and Nevermore may have a surprising connection.
