Tracking Magic by Shannon Mayer
“My name is Rylee, and I am a Tracker.”
When children go missing, and the Humans have no leads, I’m the one they call. I am their last hope in bringing home the lost ones. I salvage what they cannot.
A missing girl and a deadly item belonging to a power-mad demon need to be found before the killing begins. The problem? This is my first salvage.

This is where my journey began . . . .

The Tattoo by R.C. Murphy
Being a medium isn’t all Hollywood promised it’d be—spending the day conjuring ghosts to reunite them with their loves so they can make ceramic bowls together.
After a spur-of-the-moment tattoo opens his mind, giving him the ability to speak with the dead, Paul Doyle misses his boring old life. He wishes his time with girlfriend Isabel Flores was spent doing normal couple things, walks in the park, picnics, maybe even a movie marathon on her couch. Instead, he is thrown into the world of the dead. His new ghostly companion is Raul Delgado, Isabel’s ex-boyfriend who’s been missing for weeks. Or so they believe. How much does Paul really know about Isabel? Not enough to keep him on the corporeal side of life.

The Token by N.L. Gervasio
When Patience receives an unwanted token from a stranger, she doesn’t expect the life-altering events that follow, but after her few days of good luck turn sour, she’s more than willing to rid herself of the thing and the shadows that come with it. After her friend is murdered by the demon himself, Patience runs scared, but can’t find anyone to take the token.
Will she be able to pass it along before losing her sanity? And is she smart enough to outwit a demon?

I was disappointed in this book. None of the stories really stood out. They were too short. I wasn't able to connect to the stories or the characters. The only one that I halfway enjoyed was the Shannon Mayer short. I did enjoy getting to see how Milly first meets Rylee and Giselle. However, the story just reinforced my dislike for Milly. I find her to be evil and manipulative. I wouldn't be upset if she ends up dying in the books. Especially for what she does in this short story.
