About This Audiobook
Laurel Pettigrew was meant to be the Chosen One who would save San Francisco's hidden magical realm, but her spectacular failure allowed the dark wizard Tybus to seize control and strip supernatural beings of their powers. Now a pariah among her own kind, Laurel scrapes by with her unlikely roommates: Sybil, a sharp-tongued fairy with an attitude, and Frank, a middle-aged vampire who's lost his intimidating edge. When a mysterious outsider named Kate arrives with secrets about Laurel's true nature, the disgraced hero faces an unexpected chance at redemption that could either restore balance to the magical world or doom it forever.
