Synopsis
In the second book in the Elizabeth Webster series, Elizabeth has a client and case of her very own, but things soon become bloodstains-on-the-courtroom-floor messy.
Welcome back to Elizabeth Webster's world, where the common laws of middle school continue to torment her days...and the uncommon laws of an even weirder realm call her to duty. Elizabeth thought life would get easier after rescuing her father from the demon Redwing. Instead, things have gotten more complicated. She spends her time at Webster & Spawn sweeping floors instead of building cases, thanks to her father and grandfather. And her grades are slipping because she's communing with ghosts instead of doing her mortal homework.
When Elizabeth goes to her friend Young-Mee's house to confront a banshee, the banshee asks Elizabeth to free her son Keir from the local Countess. But if Elizabeth has learned anything, it's that things aren't always what they seem. Will Lizzie and friends be able to protect Keir from the Countess? Or should they really be protecting themselves from Keir?
Between working on the case, attempting to keep Keir McGoogan out of trouble, and evading the Countess's wrath (and her jaws), Elizabeth also has to figure out which life she wants to live-or how to live both.
Synopsis
After her grand success in the courtroom against the demon Redwing, Elizabeth thought life would get much easier. But balancing homework with defending the undead is tricky. And lately, it's been tough convincing her father that she's ready to do more than sweep the floors of the family firm.
When a wailing banshee mother begs for her help in saving her son, Elizabeth jumps at the case. Free the boy named Keir McGoogan, then reunite him with his mother at the Portal of Doom--piece of cake.
But there's a catch. While Keir waits for his trial, Elizabeth must shepherd him through the horrifying halls of middle school And soon she realizes that Keir's fate is tied to a terrifying pact made on a dark, stormy night a century ago. Behind his smart mouth and his 12-year-old appearance, Keir's hiding a secret big enough to sink your teeth into. Will Elizabeth and her friends be able to protect Keir? Or, are they the ones who need protecting?
Packed with thrills, chills, laughter, and a gremlin, this second adventure will have Elizabeth's fans hiding under their covers as they read through the night.
