Synopsis

**FROM THE PAGES OF THE HEX-FILES** Someone or something unseen has been attacking Fionna Kenmare, lead singer for the Irish acid-folk rock band Green Fire. Now she's on tour in the United States, about to play the biggest concert of her career — and she's in fear for her life, because that something has followed her across the ocean. All that stands between her and an all-too-real magical death are two offbeat government agents: **Liz Mayfield**, special agent for the British Government Office of Occult & Paranormal Sightings Investigation. Little did she imagine when she was given her dream assignment that she'd face the most fearsome magical onslaught of her life. Or that she'd run into an old friend … **Beauray Boudreau**, Liz's American counterpart from the FBI, where he's known as "Boo-Boo" Boudreau. And he doesn't have that nickname for nothing … If this unlikely duo can't solve the mystery of Fionna's invisible attackers, the singer will have a lot more to worry about than MTV.
