Caerleon runs on chaos. Someone just learned to use it.
Faerie Duchess Tetra Dupont didn't build her corner of the Bronx into a paranormal powerhouse by playing it safe. Her city runs on audacity, found family, and an enthusiastic disregard for the rulebook.
Then the blackouts start, and they are anything but random.
Each one hits at a precise moment, testing response times, mapping vulnerabilities, rehearsing something worse. Two dangerous men are using darkness as their weapon: an extremist with ambitions bigger than the city and a gang boss who should be finished but isn't.
Tetra has a valkyrie, an NYPD captain, and enough faerie dust to melt solid steel on her side. The question is whether that's enough.
Will she outmaneuver her enemies before they strike the heart of Caerleon? Or could the darkness finally swallow everything she's fought to build?
