Thirteen-year-old Al Mathews always considered himself ordinary. He didn’t believe in magic, monsters, or anything out of the ordinary—until the day he was attacked by a Pawn. Chased by a shadow and forced to defend himself from a fencer, Al’s world is about to be turned upside down.
When his mom’s job moves them to a new town near the Mississippi River, Al hopes to leave his troubled past behind: no friends, constant bullying, and the label of “loser.” But trouble seems to follow him wherever he goes.
Now, with a group of unlikely friends, Al finds himself caught in a battle between good and evil. As dark forces close in, Al must make life-or-death decisions, racing against time to save those he cares about—and uncover the answers he needs—before it’s too late.

With a mysterious ally whispering guidance and the enigmatic Council of Solomon looming over his every move, Al’s courage is pushed to its limits. The line between friend and foe blurs, and the cost of failure could tear his world apart. In a race against time, Al must rise as a hero—or watch the darkness claim them all.
