Paranormal alliances are tested in the eighth in the New York Times bestselling series about wonderfully compelling reluctant vampire heroine * Merit and the supernatural Chicago underworld.
Since Merit was turned into a vampire and became the protector of Chicago s Cadogan House, it s been a wild ride. She and Master vampire Ethan Sullivan have helped make Cadogan s vampires the strongest in North America, and forged ties with paranormal folk of all breeds and creeds, living or dead or both.
But now those alliances are about to be tested. A strange and twisted magic has ripped through the North American Central Pack, and Merit s closest friends are caught in the crosshairs. Gabriel Keene, the pack Apex, looks to Merit and Ethan for help. But who or what could possibly be powerful enough to outmagic a shifter?
Merit is about to go toe-to-toe, and cold steel to cold heart, to find out.
