Drastically altered after her fall, Neferet is clinging to life with one goal in mind: to regain her strength and her consciousness. But before she goes into hiding to relive her past--and hopefully find the key to surviving in the present--she will make one deadly strike. This time, against a human. And the aftershocks will leave no one untouched.
In the wake of a gruesome murder, Tulsa humans are panicked, blaming the House of Night for what was clearly a vampyre attack. But Zoey and the rest of the school know that none of them was involved. So who killed the mayor of Tulsa? As the police open an investigation, tensions on other fronts are growing even higher--Dallas is on a rampage against Zoey and her friends. When he finally makes a move against Stevie Rae and Shaunee, the battle lines are drawn--and someone will have to take the fall.
Meanwhile, something's going on with Zoey... and not a fun kind of something. She's feeling strange and stressed all the time--well, more stressed than usual. Which shouldn't be a surprise, considering that a powerful immortal is on the loose and she's having some boyfriend issues. Again. But is there something bigger at work? Z might not have long to find out. Light and Darkness are out of balance, awakening Old Magick... and Old Magick always demands a sacrifice.
In the thrilling eleventh House of Night novel, more than just the House of Night is at stake in a dangerous battle for Zoey's life--and soul. Can the Nerd Herd help her stay free long enough to fight back?
