Blood is red, magic is white, strap yourselves in for a wild ride! Aiden Moss and Torloch Doyle find their case is on the rocks, and the rocks aren't cooperating. Digging for answers only leads to more questions, and the boys follow them across land and sea, and from ice cream parlor to pub. With the deadline (no pun intended) approaching, the boys have to untangle what they think and what they know, what they need and what they don't, or risk making a terrible mistake. Calling in favors from all corners could be the detectives' only chance of figuring out what the Darks and their narkey-hole minions have planned. But will it be enough to solve the mystery of the spell in time to stop it, or will the Darks manage to accomplish their own disastrous goal? Grab the book, a handful of treats and hold on tight to your hat for more adventure!
