Only an elite team of non-magical humans, known as sweepers, can defuse and dispose of infestations before they spread. Most die before they finish training. Laura, a new team member, has stayed alive longer than most. Now, sheโs the lastโand onlyโsweeper standing between the city and a massive infestation. Chronicles of Amicae
