“I mean, sure, the idea of naked rituals in the woods sounds sexy. But then you factor in the dirt, the splinters, the ants, the thorns, and leaves in your butt crack, and suddenly it doesn’t seem like such a great idea.”

Trusting Jack won’t be easy for Elizabeth, but they need each other now more than ever.

Elizabeth’s magic is growing, but she has battles open on all fronts and a powerful yet very short list of allies on the Human side of the Veil.

On the upside, Elizabeth has gotten control of her dreams, secured new allies, found her daughter, and reunited with Jack. On the downside, she still has to figure out how to release the Queens from Lena’s hold, use her Archangelic powers, overcome Lena and Michael, prove Jill wrong in court, regain her reputation, and save her daughter…and figure out how to neutralize a new threat no one saw coming.

But she doesn’t have much time to figure things out, and if she, Jack, and Lucifer can’t bring the Veil down, none of her other battles will matter.
