Condemned and shunned for black magic, Rachel Morgan has three days to get to the annual witches’ conference and clear her name, or be trapped in the demonic ever-after . . . forever after.
But a witch, an elf, a living vampire, and a pixy in one car going across the country? Talk about a recipe for certain disaster, even without being the targets for assassination.

I enjoy urban and dark fantasy, particularly those part of a series. I particularly like that they often feature strong female protagonists in the Buffy tradition.
