While she desperately tries to avert the grim future, she meets a mysterious Osiris Corporation man who gives her an impossible ultimatum.

In this final book of the Kayara Ingham urban fantasy series, Aulus Tuccius’ sister goes on trial for the sins of the Tuccius line. In the wake of this devastating news, the reappearance of Kayara’s sister upends what little stability she has managed to achieve. With the threat of a spy still lurking within Moon Clan, her sanity isn’t the only thing threatened. Bomani’s paranoia grows even further, leading Moon Clan to question his ability to rule.

Coping with the loss of all that is familiar, Dr. Kayara Ingham is forced to come to terms with the fact that she is now an Architect of Lore and has more in common with demons and vampires than with humans.

The power these visions offer are far too tempting for the Moon Clan leader to overlook, and regardless of her wishes, he will use them to track down the terrorists that have been harrowing his people for years.

Unwilling to let the mind of the most powerful woman in 1,000 years be ravaged by empaths and telepaths, Sindri does something he hasn't done for centuries.
