Life is dangerous for Caroline at her home with the Venatores. She’s officially a new Watcher of the Venatores. The title comes with the responsibility to preserve the Venatores treaties with vampire-kind, but there are hunters who don’t want peace. They’re ready and waiting for a war between the species, and doing everything they can to speed its arrival. In her own life, Nicholas wants her to leave with him and allow her power to bloom to its full potential. Her heart aches to go with him, while her sense of honor has forced her to stay and fight for her place among the Venatores Lamiae sorceresses. When the Venatores are visited by another master vampire who demands that Caroline gives her an animal to call like Nicholas and his rats, she refuses and her best friend is mortally wounded, the Venatores irreparably divided, and her fate sealed. She must kill the Master of Seattle for her crimes against the Venatores and Nicholas’ vampires. But in doing so, she may cross a line that separates her from the Venatores forever.
Ahead of her lies a future unlike any the Venatores Lamiae allowed her to imagine. With each growth spurt of her power, it becomes harder to deny Nicholas the final vampire bond. It’s the choice between eternal life as a vampire servant, or the slow decay that comes from refusing to give up the last bit of her humanity. But a danger greater than any she’s ever known is on the horizon, and her humanity might be the price she’s forced to pay, to save everyone she loves.
