A witch must save a small town in Maine from demons while two men battle for her affections in this urban fantasy by the author of Booke of the Hidden
Something deadly is lurking in the swampy marshes of Moody Bog. For Kylie Strange, it just means more deaths she’s responsible for, since she’s the one who accidentally unleashed a Pandora’s box of horrors on the small town in the first place. She opened the Booke of the Hidden and now she must do everything she can to close it for good, taking on every monster it releases with the help of the local coven.
This time the Booke has unleashed not one, but two demons on the village. With her attention divided, Kylie and her coven of Wiccans are open to attack.
But those aren’t the only demons on Kylie’s mind. There’s also Erasmus Dark, the Booke’s alluring and dangerous demon guardian she can’t seem to stay away from. Even though she really should... since she’s also got her eye on the handsome and human Sheriff Ed Bradbury.
When digging for answers in the town’s past leads to the ghost of Kylie’s grandfather, everything she thought she knew and remembered gets turned upside down. Can Kylie save the town and her grandfather, or will the horrors of the Booke be too much to handle?

      Occult killings and lovestruck demons combine in this broadly blended urban fantasy novel that fights to mix magic and family matters. Kylie Strange continues her battle with the family burden, the titular ancient book that releases monsters (first met in 2017’s The Booke of the Hidden). Her romantic options include kindly Sheriff Ed, demon Erasmus Dark, and her ex Jeff, who’s turned into a werewolf. Digging into her past, Kylie encounters her ghostly grandfather and discovers why the residents of Moody Bog, Maine, have little memory of her family. But her biker-gang rivals for the Booke unleash an angry old god, leaving Kylie little time for a reunion. Westerson advances the mysteries and marvels sufficiently, but does tend to be a bit coy with the details of Kylie’s attachments, and the conclusion is more a pause than an ending. There’s enough here to keep series fans going, but new readers aren’t likely to be enthralled. Agent: Lisa Rodgers, JABberwocky Literary.
