Rescuing fantastic beasts is child's play. Clearing the name of a ridiculously handsome werewolf? Hold my Broomstick.
My name is Alicia Stormwell. By day, I run the bestiary, a nonprofit that saves and rehabilitates legendary critters. By night, I don my witch's hat and battle the dark underworld of supernatural animal traffickers.
When a witch is found dead and a wolf is accused of murder, a vampire detective from the NYPD's Magical Crimes Division hires me as a consultant. I take in the suspected hound only to discover he's not just any fabled creature, but a werewolf. And he's been framed.
Now, with a murderer on the loose and a hunky shifter in my care, I've got to use every bit of my powers and questionable instincts to uncover the truth before the killer turns his sights on me, and I end up the next witch in a body bag.

Alicia, the main character of our story, embodies the essence of a modern-day hero, reminiscent of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. With her sharp, sarcastic sense of humor, she navigates the treacherous world around her, often delivering witty one-liners even while battling for her life. This unique blend of humor and peril makes her not only relatable but also a captivating figure in the narrative. Alicia's ability to joke in the face of danger reflects her resilience and determination, traits that many admire. However, her hero complex often leads her into precarious situations, as she feels compelled to save others, sometimes at her own expense. This drive to be the savior can create tension, not just in her relationships but also in the choices she makes, pushing her to the brink. Through Alicia, we explore the complexities of heroism, the weight of responsibility, and the importance of finding light—even in the darkest times.
It is Alicia's love for mythical creatures that brings Detective Reed to her door one early morning. He needs her help to identify the wolf in question that was found at the crime scene, which has become the focal point of his investigation. The wolf, with its striking features and unusual behavior, is not just any animal; it has become the current suspect and the only lead in the murder case he is working on. As Reed explains the situation, Alicia's eyes light up with curiosity and intrigue. She believes that understanding the nature of this creature could be crucial in unraveling the mystery surrounding the crime, what she finds instead is a confused werewolf with little memory of the evening of the murder and no connection to the victim what-so-ever.
Driven by her need for justice and her ambition to clear the werewolf's name, Alicia takes on the challenge of solving the murder on her own. This daunting task means that she must navigate a world filled with danger and deception. As she delves deeper into the mystery, she realizes that her pursuit of truth could make her a target, placing her directly in the sights of the murderer. Yet, Alicia remains undeterred; her determination fuels her every step, as she uncovers clues and confronts those who would rather keep the truth buried. With each revelation, the stakes grow higher, but so does her resolve. Alicia knows that justice must prevail, even if it means risking her own safety in the process.
