When life falls apart, it’s never because of the big demons.

Kate Connor’s demon-hunting school is finally starting to find its footing—but beneath the surface, everything is threatening to unravel.

Her husband’s sudden psychic episodes keep interrupting dinner. Her daughter is torn between Mr. Tall-Dark-and-Broody and the dangerously intriguing new kid. And Kate’s marriage? Let’s just say it’s being held together with duct tape, holy water, and stubborn determination.

As if that weren’t enough, someone from Kate’s past—very much back from the dead—has resurfaced, stirring old feelings she’d long buried and raising questions she doesn’t want to answer. The timing couldn’t be worse. Or more suspicious.

With tensions rising at home and unsettling signs that something is wrong within the academy itself, Kate must untangle emotional knots and hidden threats before small cracks turn into catastrophic breaks.

Because demons may come armed with claws and fangs—but it’s the quiet details, the secrets and doubts, that do the real damage.

And if Kate doesn’t get ahead of them soon, this might be the one mess she can’t clean up.
