"Death wasn't something to be feared, or revelled. It was something to be embraced. Death wasn't the end; it was merely the beginning."
Valerie is a conniving, soulless monster living a life that shouldn't be hers. A hybrid, something very rare in the supernatural soceity, she is deemed unstable and reckless. So it comes to no surprise that after her 'fake-death' facade wears off, everyone wants her head on a platter.She thought that it ended after the War. She thought that she could finally have peace. Her death is the only thing that will bring stability back to the supernatural world; though they will have to catch her first.
Forged into two very different bonds, bloodied by rivals, and haunted with memories of her past, Valerie only has so long left before she evolves into a creature no one - not even herself - can control. But in order to fight off the darkness, and live on, Valerie needs to hunt down the very man hell-bent on killing her.
And turn him into something not even death could prepare for.
