Along the Savannah River is a queer nightclub called TRANCE where drinks are strong, the dancefloor's bumping, and drag shows blow your mind. What Trance's patrons don't know, however, is that the effervescent hotspot is run entirely by witches. In between partying, a coven of novice spellcasters discreetly study magic to enhance their lives and enliven local nightlife. But suddenly their world has turned deadly serious. A homophobic serial killer is targeting victims using a gay hookup app and the witches are worried--none more so than drag diva Altar, whose longtime lover has inexplicably vanished. Armed with tomes and tenacity, Altar and his chosen family investigate, defying police and witch law alike, and uncover an evil more powerful and personal than they could have imagined. What emerges is a gripping mystery, a story of love and friendship, and the ultimate showdown between the darkness of "the closet" and the power of unabashed queerness.
