Is Jody crazy, or has the world gone mad?Jody wakes from a terrible nightmare where she lost Drake into a bewildering world that doesn't feel like her own. Drake is the sheriff, her mother and grandmother live with her father in Portland, her twin children are off to college, and the supernatural doesn't exist in this Harrow Bay.
Everyone says she had a concussion, and it's just the aftereffects causing her memory loss and sense that everything is wrong. Jody tries to believe that, but she can't truly convince herself. When she learns she's up against a marid, it takes all her strength to fight, and it will take more than being strong to get back what she's lost.
