Garnet Lacy has moved to Madison, Wisconsin, and is managing Wisconsins premier occult bookstore, Mercury Crossing. Her move to Madison was precipitated by the murder of all the members of her coven the prior Samhain (Halloween) in Minneapolis. Garnet, as usual, was late and when she arrived she the Vatican witch hunters (The Order of Eustace) had killed the other 11 members of her coven.
Garnet had summoned the Goddess Lilith upon the discovery and killed the Vatican agents. Then with the help of her former vampire boyfriend, Daniel Parrish, shed buried the bodies of the Vatican agents in the lake at Lakeview Cemetery and the home where her coven had met was burned to the ground.
Garnet fled to Madison and vowed not to practice witchcraft again. This, despite the fact that Lilith still resided within Garnet and her efforts to not practice witchcraft were difficult to suppress as Lilith still resided within her. She has even changed Garnets eyes to purple.
One day, Sebastian Von Traum, comes into Mercury Crossing to order an obscure root. Garnet could see from his aura that he was definitely dead and definitely handsome.
Garnet finds herself involved with Sebastian and soon learns that the Vatican agents are after Sebastian. And, just to complicate things, her former vampire lover, Daniel Parrish, comes back into her life. Now she has to save her new boyfriend from the Vatican agents and keep him convinced that her old boyfriend is just that an old boyfriend.
I read this book for my book club and really enjoyed the story. It moves at a good pace and as Ive never read any vampire/occult novels, the author does a good job of explaining the occult and vampire lore.
