The Midwestern resort town of Pemkowet boasts a diverse population: eccentric locals, wealthy summer people and tourists by the busload. Not to mention fairies, sprites, vampires and a whole host of eldritch folk, presided over by Hel, a reclusive Norse goddess. To Daisy, fathered by an incubus and raised by a single mother, it's home. And as Hel's enforcer and liaison to the Pemkowet Police Department, it's up to her to ensure relations between the communities run smoothly. But when a murder occurs, Daisy must work with her crush, officer Cody, to keep the town safe.
