As a dangerous late season storm approaches, fallen elves invade Cutters Notch, determined to open the Ancient Gate to Abandon. Thirteen-year-old Hope Spencer, a favorite of the forest elves, becomes a target of the invaders.

Despite the danger, she refuses to hide in safety while her father defends the gate, falling into enemy hands. Meanwhile, Rose Flannery, along with Josh and Danny, fall prey to the criminal, Al Havener, bent on his family's revenge.

Again, all of Cutters Notch erupts at once, leaving the new sheriff, Rick Anders, juggling emergencies and trying his best to protect those he loves.
