Synopsis
White Hot follows Nevada Baylor months after her first case with Connor "Mad" Rogan, as she works to keep her family's Houston agency afloat while concealing her rare gift for sensing lies. A murder tied to animal magic draws her into the city's dangerous magical underworld, and back into contact with Rogan, whose wealth and Prime-level power make his motives as unreadable as ever despite their growing connection. The case takes a personal turn when Nevada discovers her estranged grandmother, the formidable Truthseeker Victoria Tremaine, is maneuvering to seize control of the Baylor family, using threats and old grievances. Caught between protecting Nevada's relatives from Victoria's schemes and her uneasy alliance with Rogan, Nevada must decide how far she is willing to go, and who she can trust, as the danger around her family intensifies.
