More than a year after she helped save the world from the Sparnaxian invasion, Andrea Vernon is in a good place. Her boss is giving her greater responsibility and she’s getting to travel a lot (although her fill-in is hopeless at making coffee); things could be getting even more serious with her 8’ 4” superhero boyfriend, The Big Axe; and she has a really fun new BFF, Never More. Small issue, though, with that last item - Never More is a supervillain bent on world domination, and it looks as if nothing can stop her.

Noch ahnt keiner der Lockes, wen Bode da aus dem Brunnen befreit hat: Die "Brunnenfrau" ist ein Dämon, dessen Geist dort gefangen gehalten war. Dieser Dämon war es auch, der Sam Lesser damit beauftragt hat, die magischen Schlüssel ausfindig zu machen... Alsbald nimmt die "Brunnenfrau" mithilfe des Geschlechter-Schlüssels die Gestalt eines jungen Mannes an und wird zu Zack. Um an weitere Schlüssel zu kommen, erschleicht sich Zack das Vertrauen von Tyler und Kinsey, den beiden älteren Locke-Geschwistern. Doch ein alter Lehrer an der Schule droht, die Pläne des Dämons zu durchkreuzen: Professor Ridgeway erkennt in Zack seinen ehemaligen Schüler Lukas, der vor Jahren spurlos verschwunden ist.

Noch immer hat keiner der Lockes den Dämon, der als Zack im Keyhouse ein- und ausgeht, enttarnt. Kinsey Locke hat sich sogar in den charmanten Zack verliebt. Die dunkle Kreatur nutzt jede Gelegenheit, um an die magischen Schlüssel zu kommen. Doch einer will verhindern, dass der Dämon in den Besitz weiterer Schlüssel kommt: Der Geist von Sam Lesser ist im Keyhouse gefangen und hat Rache geschworen. Der Mord an ihrem Mann hat Nina Locke völlig aus der Bahn geworfen. Sie ertränkt ihre Sorgen in Alkohol und lädt die Verantwortung auf den Schultern ihrer Kinder Tyler und Kinsey ab.

Der Abschlussball der Lovecraft Highschool steht bevor - und mit ihm die legendäre Party, die jedes Jahr in der Höhle unter dem Keyhouse steigt. Es ist genau die Grotte, in der sich die höllische Tür zur Dämonenwelt befindet, die sich nur mit dem Omega-Schlüssel öffnen lässt. Doch glücklicherweise ist die Höhle geflutet und das Tor steht unerreichbar unter Wasser. Aber so schnell lässt sich der finstere Dämon nicht von seinen bösen Plänen abbringen: Er befiehlt den Schatten, die Höhle trockenzulegen. Währenddessen irrt der Geist Bodes ungesehen durch das Keyhouse.

Weder Tyler noch Kinsey haben die leiseste Ahnung, wer sich im Körper ihres kleinen Bruders eingenistet hat: In der Gestalt von Bode Locke kann der Dämon ungestört weiter nach dem Objekt der Begierde, dem Omega-Schlüssel, im Keyhouse suchen. Dieser Schlüssel öffnet die schwarze Tür, die den Dämonen Zutritt in die menschliche Welt verschafft. Aber die Locke-Geschwister wissen mittlerweile auch über die Macht des Schlüssels Bescheid. Deshalb hat Tyler ihn an einem fast unzugänglichen Ort versteckt...

Bode findet einen weiteren magischen Schlüssel, der Menschen in Tiere verwandeln kann. Doch nicht nur der Locke-Sprössling, sondern auch Zack macht sich die Zauberkraft des Tier-Schlüssels zu Nutze: Er nimmt die Gestalt eines Wolfs an, um Kinsey und Tyler unerkannt zu töten. Zum Glück ist Bode, der sich in einen Spatz verwandelt hat, zur Stelle und greift den Dämon mit einem Spatzenschwarm an. Die Locke-Geschwister werden immer misstrauischer: Wer steckt hinter den sich häufenden Angriffen?

The world of Dematr had been locked unchanging for centuries by the Great Guilds, most people living in a world of oil lamps, crossbows, and horse cavalry, the Mechanics reserving to themselves the technology for steam locomotives, rifles, and far-talkers while the Mages treated all others as if they were nothing - until Master Mechanic Mari, dragon slayer and pirate queen, and Master of Mages Alain raised the army of the new day to free their world.

Twenty years after the war that overthrew the Great Guilds, the Empire is vowing to avenge the massive defeat of the Imperial legions at Dorcastle. Aiding the Imperials are renegade Mechanics and Mages still loyal to the old Guilds or employed by the Empire. But before they can launch an all-out war, the Imperials must eliminate a major threat: Kira, daughter of Master Mechanic Mari and Master of Mages Alain.

In the thrilling conclusion to the Legacy of Dragons trilogy, ancient weapons of mass destruction lie hidden under the city of Pacta Servanda. Remnants of the Great Guilds and rebellious factions of the Empire want to seize those weapons to allow them to regain control of the world of Dematr. Only Jason, brought by the first ship from Earth since the colony failed, might be able to disarm the threat. But he also might know how to employ those weapons, making him a danger for all sides.
