Clara has escaped the clutches of the dreaded, Chimera. With her mysterious wildfriend Cat at her side she is slowly getting to grips with her new wildwitch powers. Then, one morning, she receives an urgent cry for help: come to the park, one hour before sunset...

Before she knows it, the Wildways are calling Clara back. She finds herself drawn to the windswept clifftops of Westmark, where soul-stripped animals roam, and a dark magic waits. There Clara's newfound skills and courage are put to the ultimate test, as she desperately battles to save her friends and defeat an old enemy.
