Publisher's Synopsis
Being rescued ain't all it's cracked up to be. Andrea's no longer strapped to a stone slab in the demon Cythymau's cave, having her Sense drained to fuel his summonings. So that's a plus. But being yanked into the future, complete with forbidden knowledge gained from her link with Cythymau, has left her vulnerable, terrified, and the subject of contention for political factions within the Groves. Worse, the only people that won't try to arrest her are living in hiding. On a mountaintop. In a small cabin. And hanging out with one of the creatures that used to be Cythymau's. They just do not make therapists for this sort of thing. Meanwhile, Robert's got his hands full trying to start college. His summoning master Grace's rather dramatic conclusion to Andrea's rescue has law enforcement doubling down on summoner oppression, and it's all he can do to go to school with his head down. He's trying to take care of a traumatized demon-victim. His new master already tried to kill him once. To top it off, he's now responsible for Rick the Cornuprocyon. Thirty-foot long telekinetic raccoon demons make the worst housepets. In a world where just about everyone is out to get them, can Robert and Andrea survive on their own?
