Narrado por: Leanna Renee Hieber

Demons are amassing in New York City…

As the dawn of the twentieth century approaches, the spectral battle for the city’s souls is heating up. Maggie Hathorn, a ghostly socialite, and her living beau, Reverend Roberto Coronado, have spent their entire courtship so far solving murders and banishing evil spirits. All Maggie wants is a chance to bask in her newfound romance, attending dinner parties and stealing moments alone with her beloved exorcist.

But when New York City’s Ghost Precinct receives a call of distress from the spirit world, Maggie realizes that their battles aren’t over yet. Indeed, there are evil forces at work that are larger than she could have imagined. Maggie and Coronado discover that the perpetrators of their previous cases were both part of the American-Born Guild, an organization dedicated to fanning the flames of nativism and emboldening hateful hearts toward violence.

Even more dangerous, members of this guild have been carelessly playing with Spiritualism, opening spectral doors and unknowingly welcoming in demonic entities. This influx of demons is endangering the spectral refuge known as Sanctuary, where Maggie has more than once found a safe haven in times of trouble. Now it is Maggie’s turn to save Sanctuary. To do this, Maggie will need to call on allies new and old to help take down the guild and dispel the amassing demons. And Maggie herself will need to step into her role as a bridge between the living and the dead.

If Sanctuary can be saved, it may just be the key to fulfilling Maggie’s dreams and facilitating the love between a ghost and an exorcist.
