Synopsis
Detective Charlie Madigan and her siren partner, Hank, pursue a serial killer in Atlanta whose powers exceed those of ordinary mortals and who is targeting the powerful Adonai. At the same time forces from Charbydon are plunging the city into a living darkness that could cloak it permanently. Charlie must stop the killer and the encroaching night while protecting the people she loves, and her friendship with Hank is tested by power plays and ancient secrets. The truce between the two off-world realms is breaking down, with Atlanta caught in the middle.
