Even though Lord Gensrow has been defeated, his long shadow continues to cast a pall over the Coven. Realizing their own insularity gave the madman an advantage, every young sorceress is now encouraged to freely cross between dimensions, exploring the universe at her leisure.

Yet this additional freedom requires even greater discretion, which some magical operatives still find hard to accept. Indeed, many among the Coven ranks remain indifferent to the collateral damage they sometimes cause, putting everyone in renewed danger.

Tiffany Smith remains active in Coven operations, most recently rescuing a young girl from a backwards dimension. Yet she's also trying to find more balance in her Earth-based life, moving to a new city and finding a wonderful man to love. The only problem is that Blake knows nothing of Tiffany's true identity and powers, leaving him to wonder at her frequent absences and vague background.

However, both sides of Tiffany's life come crashing together after she's accosted by a new group of witches on Earth. Once more on the front lines of this new conflict, Tiffany fears she'll soon be forced to choose between the welfare of the Coven and the man she loves. But it's only after infiltrating the enemy witches' home dimension that Tiffany discovers secrets shattering everything she's ever known...possibly including her loyalty to the Coven itself.
