Lanie saved her student's life on Senior Prank Night, but broke her back and blunted some of her semi-pseudo-superhero powers. Now it's four years later, and Lanie's orderly life is starting to fall apart. Her brothers are living with her while their parents are out of the country on another book research trip. Not so bad, but their parents have missed two check-in phone calls already.

Lanie saved her student's life on Senior Prank Night but broke her back and blunted some of her semi-pseudo-superhero powers. Now it's four years later, and Lanie's orderly life is starting to fall apart. Her brothers are living with her while their parents are out of the country on another book research trip. Not so bad, but their parents have missed two check-in phone calls already. The newspaper where Lanie works has been taken over by a conglomerate she now refers to as the Evil Empire. A series of increasingly nasty pranks lead her to believe someone is out to get her.

The shadows from Lanie's past continue to haunt her and her friends as Neighborlee moves from Christmas to New Year's Eve. Something or someone is tampering with the magical defenses of the town. Things and people disappear and reappear, with no explanation, leaving gaps in memories and time. As New Year's Eve approaches at Eden, the Neighborlee community center, the disappearances and time gaps increase. Instead of trying to convince town officials to cancel the New Year's Eve party, the guardians prepare for a showdown, and brace themselves to do what they have always done.

Cerb is back, with Loralee, the "girl" of his dreams—both of them stuck in dog shape while on Earth—and looking forward to a "blessed event." Instead of suffering cravings, Loralee digs up Lanie's yard, in her sleep, uncovering jewels and bones and trouble.

In between helping friends plan their weddings, Lanie deals with a dog (that is much more than a dog) that has moved in with her. Then there's an unwanted match from a dating service that might be planted by enemies of the guardians.

The guardians face their greatest dilemma when a new-age cult threatens to drive the Grandstones out of Neighborlee—and take their place. Better the devil they know than the one they don't? Saving Neighborlee Children's Home from foreclosure and stopping an invasion from otherworldly forces could all depend on Pastor Rocky "getting the band back together". Problem: Everyone else died in a fiery crash. Or did they? Multiple enemy forces unite to attack the town of Neighborlee, attempting to turn Pastor Rocky into their newest weapon. Big mistake.
