Jamie has been assigned by his spiritual father, Simon Magus, and spiritual mother, Helen, to cleanup the human garbage left over from World War II. His witch family, The DeMolays, have almost been wiped out by a criminal witch family, the Destragas, in Languedoc, New Jersey. The five remaining DeMolays, plus Jamie, head for California in July 1950.Their new home is on Santa Louise Island, eight miles off the coast of Malibu, California. Jamie's spiritual cousin, Rob Wilson, an ex-OSS agent, is assigned by Mary Morgan, Director of the Supreme Witches Council, to find Adolph Hitler, Joseph Goebbles, and Heinrich Himmler. When their spirits didn't show up in the transition area to be sent to hell by Walt, Rob's father, it was determined they were still alive. After searching for four years Rob and his team discovered they were hiding in the Graile Castle on the western side of Santa Louise Island. Rob didn't have the enough power to break the shield Hitler placed around the castle so he asked his uncle, Simon Magus, if he could use Jamie to destroy the shield.
