Mage Alex Verus is caught between a rock and a hard place in the eighth urban fantasy novel from the national bestselling author of Burned.
Alex Verus still has nightmares about his time apprenticed to Dark mage Richard Drakh. He’s been free of him for many years. But now the only way to keep his friends from being harmed is to again work for Richard and one of his oldest allies. Even worse, he’s forced to bring the Light mage Anne into this servitude as well.
After weeks of being hunted and finally cornered into what he thought was his last stand, Alex never thought his life would be spared — and never anticipated at what price. This time, the diviner can see no way out...
