Danny is a Conjurer who can summon supernatural beings, or banish the Things That Should Not Be Here™ Esteban is in trouble again.

Can they stop the witch hunt from happening again? EXTRACT “My name's Esteban, and I'm a sorcerer. I specialise in time magic, called Chronomancy. Two hours ago I had a dream where something horrible tore itself out of the city. It was like watching a wasp larva hatch out of a spider. I saw fire raging around everywhere. In my dream my friend Danny was trying to hold a circle. That's what Danny does, he's a Conjurer. Conjurers draw magic circles and exorcise the Things That Shouldn't Be Here™”
