Witch blood. The idea haunts Lyssandra as she leaves her life with the Helius Order behind. She'll move forward, if only to thwart her greatest enemy yet. Only the witches aren't what she expects. They're guarded, and scared. Because someone is stealing their skins. In danger once again, Lyss must solve the mystery of the skin-stealer, all while balancing her growing relationship with Asher, and her new role as her great uncle's keeper. Time is short. Eiric is free, and he has plans for Lyssandra. Plans that will mean the death of her vampire, and ruin for all.
