November 1999, North Dana, Massachusetts. The body of Bastion Attia - high school quarterback, secret witch, and Nesbit Nuñez's even-more-secret boyfriend - is discovered at the edge of Stepwood Cemetery. As Nesbit and his coven of queer misfits investigate Bastion's death they discover local folktales of Mr Nous, a terrifying wish-granting creature, one whose gifts come at a terrible price. The coven must do battle against an age-old evil before it strikes again.
