The Path

Family, obligation and love... sometimes the choice is made for us. Cassie Porter's family has always pushed her to be an agent for Veritas, the agency responsible for policing nearly all aspects of life for witches living side by side with "regulars." It promised her the better life her parents wanted for her. A life off the Reservation. Unfortunately, Cassie's magick is not so decided on her life's course. Mixed magick, a result of her mixed blood, leaves Cassie's power volatile and her agent status in question. Julia Decartes, a matronly Vodou practitioner and Quan Long, an elemental witch from the headwaters of the Yangtze are entrusted with breaking Cassie in in the field while attempting to keep her from killing anyone including herself in the process.
 Investigating a cult leader in Florida, they discover misuse of power, manipulation of vulnerable women and a trail of bodies. Drew Carter, new to the magickal world, teams up with Cassie when his brother goes missing. It's only by standing on her own that Cassie untangles her power, and Drew finds the world where he really belongs.
