Adalia Kendrick sees the dead. It's a gift. Or maybe a curse. Either way, she's had five years to learn that the dead don't always stay quiet.

Her mother, Danny, has spent those years running from the darkness of the Night's Favor, trying to carve out a life far from the blood and ruin they left behind. But some things won't be outrun—especially when the past comes hunting.

Across the sea, Talin Moray has heard of the Night's power, and he wants it for himself. With Vodou and an army of the dead, he brings Chicago to its knees, and he won't stop until the world bows with it.

To stop him, Val, Danny, and Adalia must face the truth: this curse is their only weapon, and the price of using it might be everything.

If they fail? Talin won't just take the city. He'll rule its ashes.
