How it starts
Evie O'Neill is thrilled to be moving to New York City in 1926, a place filled with speakeasies and vibrant life. However, her excitement is tempered by the need to live with her uncle Will, who is obsessed with the occult. Evie harbors a secret supernatural power that she fears will be discovered. When a girl is found murdered with a cryptic symbol, Evie realizes her gift might help catch the killer. As she delves into the mystery, she encounters others with secrets of their own, including Memphis, a young man torn between worlds, and Theta, a chorus girl fleeing her past. Unknown to them all, a dark force has awakened, threatening the city. First in the completed 'The Diviners' series.
