Rook is now the seer and it's up to her to solve the mysteries. When magical creatures and people start to go missing and weird occurrences become more frequent, she's forced to finally start her job as the seer to stop the crimes. But you can't trust everyone you think you can. Where are these creatures, how are they vanishing and why?
I enjoyed this but found it more predictable than the previous Jackaby books. I don't know if that's because this was the first one I listened to the audiobook of, or because I'm reading mystery/thrillers more frequently now.
I found the culprit pretty obvious though they weren't doing it for the reason I thought. Overall, it was still enjoyable, just too predictable.
