Zahora's young, naïve, restless, and powerful, so when the Pagans' senior magiks refuse to teach her, she takes matters into her own hands. She stumbles blindly into the magical Sphere, and there are consequences ... but at least Rose knows who she is now. And Rose - the Pagans' leader - wastes no time in putting Zahora to work, finding a way to break the magic binding Raina and Callie to the Templars. But Zahora's impulsive, distracted by a mysterious man, and wouldn't know caution if it hit her in the face.

While Caspar plays politics, meeting the audacious demands of allies to secure their loyalty, Jon is sent to New York, to retrieve Raina's wayward human cousin, Leila, who's looking into things she shouldn't. Isolated from the outside world, Raina walks a tightrope, convincing the Templars she's loyal to them, while searching for anything that could aid her true nation, or speed her return to Caspar, her soulmate.

But the Pagans contend not only with the Templars, but Slayers, a corrupt Registerium, and the shadowy West Coast nation. With so many perilous parts, the Pagans' plans must be meticulous, so when an opportunity to retrieve Raina and Callie arises, they're ready to strike.
