Now that Onaconah's soul has been taken by Derrick Alexander, it should be easier than ever to protect the people in the mountains of North Carolina.
But despite Derrick's promises that his Raven Mockers will no longer feast on innocent souls, people are disappearing in the mountains. Which leaves Emily Morrow and Joseph Stomper no choice but to get involved.
And it couldn't come at a worse time...
Emily's grandfather is no longer responding to cancer treatments. Kadie is seeing strange visions that have an uncanny way of becoming reality. Chandler and their father do nothing but fight. Sila feels Derrick growing more and more distant and less and less human. And Joseph is always occupied with his duties as War Chief of the Nunnehi.
Feeling more alone than ever, Emily must rely on her own instincts to get to the bottom of Derrick's strange behavior and trust in two unlikely heroes that will teach her that sometimes, forces stronger than death reach beyond the veil to create the deadliest threat of all.
Don't miss this heart-pounding conclusion to the Native Guardians series.
