Jesse Madding finds himself caught between three gorgeous men, an ancient demon, and a dedicated group of cultists ...<br><br>A simple case for Gideon Keel and Jesse Madding turns into something far more complicated when they discover their friend's trouble-prone nephew was doing a lot more than just studying demon history. Jonah stole a holy book, and now the cultists he stole it from want it back.<br><br>Protecting Jonah becomes even more vital when Jesse learns just who it is the cultists worship -- Castelain, an immortal demon who walks between worlds.

Might he also have a name for the being that nearly took his life and kidnapped Emma?

However Long the Night

“So that’s it?” Jonah asked. “I wander around the house, trying to stay out from underfoot?”


“I’d say yes, but I have a feeling that would just piss you off into doing something really dumb.” Gideon sighed and ran a hand over his hair. “Jesse and I are focusing on the John part of the problem. We’ve got a few ideas we’re tossing around about that, but part of it stems from getting a hold of the guy who helped Emma control her empathic abilities. I figured you two could work with Derek on that.”


David nodded. “We can do that. Who is he? I’m guessing he’s not still in Chicago.”


“Ethan Parker. I’m not sure where he’s from originally. Michelle probably knows. The first time we had a run-in with Castelain, we used him and Emma to siphon back the powers that were being stolen from John.”


“We’ll get right on it,” David promised. He glanced over to Jonah. “Right?”


Jonah nodded. “I’ll call Derek and see what he knows.”
