What if the hottest guy in the world was hiding a nameless evil, and all he wanted was you?
At
the start of this heart-pounding new installment of the bestsellingHouse of Night series, Zoey's friends have her back again and Stevie
Rae and the red fledglings aren’t Neferet's secrets any longer. But an
unexpected danger has emerged. Neferet guards her powerful new consort,
Kalona, and no one at the House of Night seems to understand the threat
he poses. Kalona looks gorgeous, and he has the House of Night under
his spell. A past life holds the key to breaking his rapidly spreading
influence, but what if this past life shows Zoey secrets she doesn’t
want to hear and truths she can't face?
On the run and holed up
in Tulsa's Prohibition-era tunnels, Zoey and her gang must discover a
way to deal with something that might bring them all down. Meanwhile,
Zoey has a few other little problems. The red fledglings have cleaned
up well – they've even managed to make the dark, creepy tunnels feel
more like home – but are they really as friendly as they seem? On the
boyfriend front, Zoey has a chance to make things right with super-hot
ex, Eric, but she can't stop thinking about Stark, the archer who died
in her arms after one unforgettable night, and she is driven to try to
save him from Neferet's sinister influence at all costs. Will anyone
believe the power evil has to hide among us?
