About the Book
There is a world that
runs parallel to our own, a world in which the souls of the damned are
caged, where they are looked over by the Furies, and where they spend
eternity in torment, mirroring the devastation and mayhem they created
when alive.
Someone has opened the cage.
The worst of
terrors has crossed the barrier that separates our world from theirs,
and the Furies send a great, albeit untested warrior — their only son,
Alek — to try to bring those souls back. He is young and handsome,
headstrong and impulsive, and he won’t be able to do it alone.
Eva has grown up, beautiful and beloved, but surrounded by secrets. First,
she will be hunted in an ancient feud that will threaten her life. Then, she will become the hunter.
With the police closing in and two
worlds on the verge of crumbling around them, Alek and Eva must find
each other, discover the limits of their powers, and work together to
save everything they hold dear, including one another. Blending elements of mythology with the dazzling storytelling that her fans have devoured through the House of Night series, Kristin Cast weaves a spellbinding and passionate tale that starts a thrilling new series with an explosive charge.
