Alina is a Hunter and one of the very best they've ever had, but now her life has taken a turn for the wicked and not in a good way. She's having to lie to her own people in order to continue working with a vampire and as if that's not bad enough a new foe has popped up as well, intent upon using her for nefarious deeds. All Alina wants to do is hunt down and kill Nathaniel, but right now that task seems next to impossible. What will she be forced to do next and will she remain the same person or be irrevocably changed forever?
