In the "wild west" state of Nevada, math student Cat Fortune is still struggling to come to terms with the magical abilities she unwittingly inherited from her ancestors. She never wanted to be be tasked with protecting the world from the powerful Babylonian gods who want to destroy humanity, but that's exactly what she was persuaded to do. And after successfully stopping their previous attempt, Cat is once again called to the fight, even if she is not sure she is ready for the challenge.
She is still struggling to comprehend the strange world of mythical creatures, gods and demons into which she has been thrust, while trying to understand the full nature of her new abilities. But as she delves deeper into her own powers, Cat begins to suspect that something else may have taken up residence inside her during the climactic battle at the casino.
When the sherriff asks her for help to investigate a murder, Cat discovers that Marduk's followers are seeking out powerful artifacts that could bring about the end of the world. She realizes that she must find them before the Babylonians do.
But is Cat sufficiently in control of her powers to defeat the followers of Marduk once again, or will she succumb to their overwhelming strength? And why is the FBI beginning to take an interest in her? Find out as this fast-paced tale of magic, danger, and the fate of humanity carries us from the glitz of a casino city to the desolation of a meteor crater, from betrayal at the hands of a tech guru to a demonic battle in an old west ghost town.
