Jake Everett and his new team of hunters embark on their next mission, which takes them to a town called Paradise. All is not heavenly within the boundaries of the town. Strange creatures are plaguing the humans and it is their job to figure out what they are and how to get rid of them.

Visiting the closest Archives to their base, they enlist the help of a clever young Archivist. With Brandon Cooper's database of information on file, they can narrow down the types of monsters they'll be facing. Unfortunately, he has to report their visit to his boss, the new Master Archivist. Jake hasn't met Sheridan Harwood yet and his instincts tell him to avoid her at all costs.

During their mission, they encounter one of the Supernatural Crime Units that have been created to deal with non-human entities. Jake and his team won't always be able to handle the monsters they'll be facing alone. It would be folly to refuse assistance from possible allies, even if they don't trust them. While Jake isn't happy about the idea of working with the SCU, he might not have a choice. He knows where this job will ultimately take him; back to the fae realms where both danger and delight await him.
