<p>"The settings are vivid and real and the characters loveable. The plots interesting and contemporary. Highly recommended for those who want a true "beach read"-especially a Long Beach one!" Marie Cartier, author of Baby, You Are my Religion: Women, Gay Bars and Theology Before Stonewall\nPanda and Mitzi Fowler's much-needed family vacation is rudely interrupted when a Merryville police officer pulls them over before they've even left town. Shocking allegations against Ekk and Panda follow, and the Fowlers and their friends are under attack yet again, only this time by legal means.\nAt the same time, an epic war is heating up in the Hercynian Forest. Seizing the opportunity to bring the war to his opponents' doorstep, "Pastor" Wolfrum and his miscreants appear in Merryville to sow chaos and take power once and for all.\nAs the Free Creatures from Germany's Hercynian Forest arrive to help, Panda is in serious trouble, in jail, and lacking Mitzi's usual support. She comes to realize she must master her newly-found sensing magic. But how deep does it go?\nAnd will she be able to use the magic in time to save herself, their friends and Merryville?\n"I dare to add Reba Birmingham's name to the distinguished list of fantasy writers who use magic, myth and mystery to discover new meaning to old truths. It has been truly inspiring to see lesbians, a Native American and fantastical forest creatures join together to defeat evil that is as ancient as the Bible and as modern as today's headlines."

<p>Be careful what you wish for. Panda Fowler thinks her magic isn't as exciting as the talents of those around her. For example, her wife Mitzi can fly. Ekk and Elsa, her  magical guardians, have the ability to make "elf holes" and use aromas to control emotions. Panda has "sensing magic," which seems very tame in comparison. Before being considered for a dangerous mission, it didn't matter. Once she and her cat were almost killed in her own kitchen, things changed. Somehow, ravens came in great numbers to chase her attackers away. Did Panda call the ravens? If she did, can she do it again? Her father-in-law, leader of all free magical creatures, pretty much orders Panda to "figure it out" and use her "raven magic" on behalf of the Hercynian Forest. Panda's not so sure she can do that, and the stakes are literally the balance of good and evil in both Merryville and the Hercynian Forest.In her own town of Merryville, the temperature is getting progressively colder and no one knows why. Forces from abroad have made this their problem to solve. It's not like she and her wife can just drop everything to solve existential threats either. Panda and Mitzi Fowler still have responsibilities in Merryville, the ordinary world. Very few know of their secret life. Panda does taxes, and Mitzi is getting more involved with the Horticultural Society to pay a debt. The local stories intertwine with their magical mission as the couple deals with a fire which threatens their friends, an active shooter situation at a memory care, and the strange frost and snow covering their town. Will Panda, Mitzi, and their eclectic band of friends find a way to successfully beat back the evil forces at play?</p>
