''Las Vegas, a city known as much for it’s luxurious casinos and decadent indulgences as it’s rampant crime and and grisly violence. Beneath the mundane surface, it teeters on the brink of destruction, as rival ambitions clash for control, and monsters rise up from shadows to wreak havoc. A thief carrying power beyond mortal comprehension hides from the fury of gods, while a man searches for answers out of sheer curiosity alone. A young woman tries desperately to find her way in the world, while a young man pushes on his. Meanwhile two young soldiers, not yet truly seasoned, are tasked with the impossible- to halt the rampage of a mysterious Warlock murdering his victims in a dark ritual that mutilating their souls as well as their body. And all the while, as the gods and wise men throw lightning bolts at each other, innocent people die in the crossfire, and a town already on the edge, threatens to hit the breaking point...''

''Las The world is reeling from the fall of the Red Court and the death of Harry Dresden. All over the planet Warlocks are rising up to challenge the White Council, old gods and spirits are stirring at the scent of the blood in the waters, and factions are dueling for their piece of the power-vacuum pie and the city of Las Vegas, on the edge of Red's former territory, is no different. The local crime lord, a city Dark Sorceress known as much for it’s luxurious casinos and decadent indulgences as it’s rampant crime and and grisly violence. Beneath the mundane surface, it teeters on the brink of destruction, as rival ambitions clash for control, and monsters rise up from shadows to wreak havoc. A thief carrying power beyond mortal comprehension hides from the fury of gods, while Madame Colette, with a man searches for answers out of sheer curiosity alone. A young woman tries desperately to find her way in the world, while long a young man pushes on his. Meanwhile two young soldiers, not yet truly seasoned, are tasked sorted history with the impossible- to halt White Council, is having her criminal rule threatened by Baron Giovanni Thorne, a young but ambitious White Court Lord with the rampage designs to carve himself an empire for the White Court, with Vegas as the seat. But them and their war are only the tip of the iceberg- Loki, Norse God of Mischief is in town hunting the stolen Hammer Of Thor, ''Mjolnir'', and plotting his own schemes, while worst of all a mysterious murderous Warlock murdering his victims in a dark ritual that mutilating their souls as well as their body. And all the while, as the gods press have taken to calling "The Bloody Marry Killer" runs losse and wise men throw lightning bolts at each other, innocent people die unchecked.

Throw
in the crossfire, and some trigger happy Wardens, a town already shy Changeling, a sassy Russian con woman, a White Council nerd, a AnythingThatMoves patricidal White Court vampire, a criminal grifter with a budding conscious, a ProudWarriorRaceGuy on the edge, threatens to hit bad side of the breaking point...''
Goddess of Hel, and a plucky young werewolf, and you roughly have ''Edge Town'' in a nut shell.
