What this book is about

The fifth In Death novel: a fellow police officer dies under suspicious circumstances, and the investigation leads Eve into New York's occult underground, a Wiccan community split between genuine practitioners and something much darker. Roberts writes the cult material with care — not all Wiccans are the threat, and the distinction matters.
