A new recruit to a powerful supernatural intelligence agency is accused of going rogue and must clear her name. In September 1940, three women from the Checquy, tasked with protecting Britain from supernatural threats, witness German aircraft approaching London. Forbidden to intervene, they watch as the city is bombed. When Pamela, the most sensible of the trio, breaks the rules and brings down a Nazi bomber, they vow to keep it a secret. However, a missing crew member and charred corpses soon reveal that they have unleashed a monster. The friends must navigate a city ravaged by the Blitz to hunt the enemy before he strikes again, uncovering secrets that even their organization hides from itself. In the present day, Lynette Binns, a librarian and late recruit to the Checquy, discovers her ability to electrify objects with her touch. After training, she is assigned to investigate a series of brutal murders that bear the mark of her unique power. With no alibi and determined to prove her innocence, Lyn flees into London’s underworld. As she battles powered thugs and her own vengeful colleagues, she realizes that the key to solving the murders and understanding her past lies in the events of World War II and the actions of the three women during the Blitz.
