While they were guarding against one kidnapping spree, the Veil performed another. But Scarlett has a lead on the captives, and for once, she's going to be the one delivering trouble rather than receiving it. The Veil won't be stopped by just one strike, though. Camus' plans to control captives and their owners with magical mind control collars could make him unstoppable. All he needs to do is get the collars on, place the servants, and activate the magic inside them.

Rachel and Dash have a new client. Well, three new clients. A trio of transvestite working girls want Rachel to investigate the death of one of their own. Rosalinda's throat was slashed on Halloween right after the Greenwich Village parade. Finding her killer isn't exactly the NYPD's top priority—and LaDonna, Chi Chi, and Jasmine are terrified that they'll be next.

Rachel has just been hired as undercover security at a dog-training symposium at a posh Manhattan hotel. How can the Greenwich Village PI and her pit bull, Dashiell, turn down the hefty fee, plus free room and biscuits at the Ritz?

The Veil's mind control collars are a looming threat, and Scarlett and her allies are doing their best to get the dirt on them.

The "Bald Baddies," officially known as the Luminous Veil, have big plans to control the minds of the rich and powerful. Scarlett's travels have made her a roadblock, which can't be allowed. The fight against Darrin Redthorn and his minions was nothing compared to what these thugs bring to the party. They're magically powerful and utterly vicious. And they have friends. Runeclaw's leap into the enemy's portal has denied them one of their gathering spaces. But a group this powerful, this old, surely has some in reserve.
