The Pact - Dark Roads, Book One

When you walk in the land of the Reaper, who will survive?

Serenity Walker has cast runes for as long as she can remember. Her teachers call her a prodigy, and her secret studies hold the key to unlimited potential. Once an orphan left on an old woman's doorstep, Serenity finally belongs. But when her mentor is murdered right in front of her, her hopes of a home die with him. Her quest for vengeance leads her into a dangerous deal with a demon. Armed with its dark power and her own talent with the runes, she blazes a trail across the lands where ranchers and railroad men are kings, where the prevailing law is the law of the gun. To find the man who reshaped her past, Serenity offers up her future. She'll face a world where weavers are hunted down to be hanged, whipped, or burned alive...but she won't face it alone.

As Serenity's mission takes her farther than most weavers are willing to go, she'll have to decide who her true enemy is: the wicked men of the world, or the powerful demon inside her.
