Hustling as a waitress is a far cry from being the most feared witch in the world. But after surviving ten years of war between humans and supernaturals, Lily finds anonymity a relief. Even a request for help from an old coven friend can't bring Lily out of hiding -- until her friend disappears, along with the entire coven. What's worse, wolf shifter and Chief Investigator Leif -- the man Lily is secretly in love with -- considers her the only suspect. And to top it all off, the dark witch who was her first love has been resurrected ... and wants her back. Lily's search for the truth could destroy the witch-shifter Alliance and reignite the war with the humans. But if that's what it takes to help her friends, she'll do it. Even a retired war witch is very dangerous when provoked.
