Deliver Kate Winters and be spared.” Kate is the one person gifted enough to work the magic held in the ancient book of Wintercraft. And everyone wants her, either to lock her up or to use her as the ultimate weapon. Her rare power is being able to walk freely through the veil between life and death, and she cannot control it. Hunted by the Blackwatch—the elite assassins of the enemy—and by her own people, Kate flees deep into tunnels beneath the graveyard city. And she is still inextricably linked to the murderer and traitor Silas Dane, who has crossed the ocean and walked straight into the enemy's hands. As the Blackwatch closes in, Kate and Silas will face terrors that only they can keep from destroying Albion. And time is running out. Those who wish to see the dark, be ready to pay your price.
