A powerful magic user has gone rogue, endangering everything in his path. When it's all said and done, LA no longer recognizes her once Familiar world.

LeeAnn's life is taking a nasty turn. There are forces at work which are determined to expose the magic community to humans. One of LA's closest allies hovers on the edge of death. Grandmama Celeste has disappeared and, for the first time since LA's known her, isn't responding to her pleas for help. To make things worse, LA's best friend, Deg, is attacked by Wraiths and the healers aren't sure they can cure him.

LA soon finds herself on a journey to Underworld…traveling to Hades in search of a rare flower that's closely guarded by Wraiths. The journey is long…fraught with danger…and LA must trust someone who hasn't always been trustworthy for its success.

But her challenges haven't yet begun. Her world continues to burn.

And, in the end, she'll find herself alone and overwhelmed, with an array of dangerous forces lining up against her, and time running out to save the ones she loves. Will LA be able to dispel the stigma of her own mistakes? Or will her friends pay the ultimate price as she gives herself over to the evil swirling around them all?
