Everyone dies. In the end, there is only death. For Amelia Tonnaire, death may come much quicker than she ever expected. When she finds herself in a strange new age book shop one afternoon, she unknowingly gets dragged into a war of the Ancients. They are a proud race of creatures she never even knew existed. Beautiful and strong, the Ancients are deadly beings with wicked claws and silver tongues. They are ruled by Linnea, a three thousand year old queen with a bloodthirsty heart and calculating mind…and she wants Amelia gone. Is it coincidence that this meeting place of the two realms happens to be a book shop owned by a fellow high school student? Or are there much greater things happening here? A queen is on the hunt for revenge and Amelia Tonnaire is the first name on her list.
