Autumn brings a new music festival to Gordarosa, Colorado, and Caitlin Ross’s band is playing! Hoping to get through the event with a minimum of arguing over set lists and placement, Caitlin soon discovers more trials await her than the usual hassles of the music business. On the first night, she stumbles across the body of one of the festival’s promoters. What seems a natural death at first glance proves murder when Caitlin detects the residue of magic around the corpse. With no authority to believe her, it falls to Caitlin, the only witch in town, to trace the spell to its source and bring the perpetrator to justice.
The task appears straightforward, but murder is only the festival’s first calamity, and it’s not alone in having magical origins. A fairy amulet has unleashed the forces of chaos, and the resulting fights and riots put a hitch in Caitlin’s investigation. When she discovers the amulet belonged to the original victim, she suspects she’s found the motive for the crime. If she can find the amulet first, she can set a trap to reveal the murderer. To do so, however, she must wield a power unlike anything she’s ever dreamt of. The cost is her sanity, and possibly her life.
