Full moons bring out the dangers, and for private investigator Sam Hain, that means a supernatural creature has run afoul of the Veil Watchers, a government organization dedicated to preventing humans from knowing they share a world with supernatural creatures by any means necessary. As her birthday nears, an evasive redcap asks seeks her aid for a banshee whom a young woman filmed singing her warning of doom and then uploaded the video to social media. As the video went viral, teams of amateur ghost hunters descended upon the sleepy Irish village of Bannagh. Now the banshee, the young woman who discovered her, and numerous ghost hunters are in danger from the Veil Watchers and from ancient evils and shadowy forces alluded to in the banshee's song. With only four days before Veil Watcher Michael Cormack arrives to preserve the secret through a shoot-first policy, Sam has little time for error if she is to protect everyone from overzealous Watcher Michael Cormack, known for his scorched earth approach to keeping the secret safe. And as ancient evils rise and threaten the living, Sam's resolve to protect the lives of all involved will be tested as she unravels the mystery of Liam's doom.

As the mystery deepens and a darkness rises, will Sam find the perpetrator before too many young lives suffer, or will death and sorrow follow in the darkness' wake because it hungers?

Sam Hain's life has been good over the past few months. Business has improved, and her relationship with Carmilla has flourished. And then Craig Wellington enters on the full moon, telling the tale of losing a fist fight and owing his soul to a Man in Black, perhaps the Devil, at a crossroads south of town. During this time, Nick Scratch calls in Sam's blank check, tasking her to return the escaped soul of a powerful magician to Hell by St. John's Night or take his place. When the Devil comes to claim his due, who will be singing the Crossroad Blues?

Faust had won, and now Sam bore the same mark he placed on Craig Wellington: One Month before he returns to devour her soul.

As Sam leaves for Germany to join the Hermetic Order of the Resplendent Dawn, a young Fae woman begs for her help after a headless rider decapitated her sister who sought to bring their Grandmother a human infant. If all things are connected, how does this child fit into the larger picture? Will Sam grow strong enough to stop Faust from completing his mission, or will she replace him in Hell? As the daughter of the Arch Magus of the Astrum Argentum, such is the fate of the magician's child?
