Robin Page, a human without magical abilities, navigates the dangerous underworld of the Guild Codex: Demonized series. In this third installment, she remains bound to Zylas, a lethal shadow demon she secretly summoned. Their fragile alliance faces a new threat when a series of supernatural kidnappings targets the local mythic community. To rescue those taken, Robin must rely on her talent for baking demon-attracting treats and her growing understanding of Zylas’s alien code of honor. They venture into a hidden supernatural facility where Robin’s lack of combat skills forces her to use intellectual manipulation and forbidden artifacts to survive.
