Description
Harry Dresden, Chicago's only professional wizard, can't seem to catch a break.
When the supernatural nations of the world meet up to negotiate an end to ongoing hostilities, Harry Dresden joins the White Council's security team to make sure the talks stay civil. With the most influential members of those nations gathering in Harry's hometown, Chicago is about to get interesting.
But some even bigger problems are arriving, courtesy of Harry's relatives. Family: Can't live with them, can't live without them. His brother is in trouble with a capital T; his grandfather, the wizard Ebenezer McCoy, is warning him that a fraction in the White Council is maneuvering to kick Harry out; and oh, remember the Accords? The agreement that keeps all those supernatural nations playing kind-of-sort-of nice is under fire, teetering on the edge of destruction. And Harry's brother might have something to do with that.
As dark political manipulations threaten the very existence of Chicago and all Harry holds dear, it'll take everything he has—and then some—to have any hope of succeeding.
