After flattening her entire eighth-grade class with a wild lightning blast, Minerva's mom agrees to send her to Asgard School for Heksen, in hopes of taming the power that explodes from her hands whenever she's stressed out.
Minerva loves Midgard, Maine, a Viking-themed berg where fairytale folk pretend to be tourist attractions. She adores her new friends, and she's pretty okay with her new job, beautifying the dead at the town's Funerarium. In fact, life seems perfect.
Until Loki show up with his bloody sack.
The town folk seem more spooked by Loki's appearance than the contents of his burlap bag, so Minerva decides it's up to her, to find out what nasty secret he's hiding.
When Minerva spies Loki burying the sack in an ancient cemetery, she digs up his gruesome treasure. But her actions put everyone she cares about in the path of the mischief god's deadly revenge.
