Blackbirch: The Ritual (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780648773047)

After the devastating events at The Playhouse, Josh is once again grieving. Unwilling to put Sarah and Max in more danger, he vows to deepen his abilities alone and stop the mysterious threat Kallie warned was coming. But his powers aren't as strong as they once were.

Something is siphoning his magick, and he doesn't know where to turn. Can he have faith in Eve after her sudden reappearance? Or should he side with Sheriff Stevens, whose help comes with secrets the lawman isn't prepared to reveal?

When Josh is faced with enemies-both old and new-he has a choice to make: fight the one who threatens to take everything from him, or put his trust in an enemy who promises to cast a ritual that will give everything back.
