From #1 New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon and Dianna Love comes the second book in the Belador series--featuring a league of international warriors with extraordinary abilities who rise up to save mankind from supernatural terrorists.  Evalle must hunt her own kind...or die with them.  On the heels of saving mankind from destruction at the hands of the Medb coven, Evalle attempts to convince the Tribunal that she is an Alterant who can be trusted around humans. But the gods and goddess ruling over this Tribunal twist words she'd uttered in the heat of combat and hold her responsible for three dangerous Alterants that escaped their prisons. She is given a choice to either recapture those three who will lose their freedom forever or face the same sentence. Unsure that she can condemn another Alterant to a life she'd die before accepting, Evalle takes on an impossible task only to learn that the entire future of the Beladors rides on her success--and the only person who can help her is the one who wants to gut her.
