As a suffering epileptic with uncontrolled siezures, Miriam always knew she was different. For her, it's better to be invisible--but that all changes when He comes to town; a boy with murder in his eyes, and blood on his soul. He's different too. Maybe not even human... But there's a dark secret behind the truth of Miriam's siezures. Her days are numbered--and she doesn't even know it. Only one thing can save her. One person. It's too bad that the curse that could end up saving her life, could be the very thing that destroys it...

Tensions are heating up in the country of Fen, putting it on the brink of civil war. The people are torn between support of the King's rule and the influential church of Fennarie, the goddess from which the country gets its name. The constant demon threat doesn't make matters better. And if that isn't enough, a new, mysterious threat has come to Fen, named "Shades". The young Seeress Anima has a connection to them, being one who can see spirits of the dead. Why is it that now everyone can see them? Why do they come, shrouded in black shadows, destroying all they touch? How have they gained a tangible form? Join Anima and her allies as they unravel the mystery behind the dangerous Shades and discover ancient secrets that could change their world forever. Sequel to "Every Little Memory", though reading it before this story isn't necessary.
