After a killing for which she feels responsible, sixteen-year-old Ashline Wilde moves cross-country to a remote California boarding school, where she learns that she and others have special gifts that can help them save the world, but evil forces are at work to stop them.

Ashline Wilde, her sister Eve, and new boyfriend Wes set out to stop Ash's trickster-god ex-boyfriend, Colt, once and for all when they learn he plans to kill the Cloak, the benevolent beings that oversee the gods, and merge Ash and her two sisters back into the too-powerful goddess, Pele.
