August Saint had escaped his past. Or so he thought. Once he had been the most feared Necromancer in Seattle. But after the death of his daughter, Cassie, eight years ago he left the world of Necromancy and black magic behind. Now he's just a struggling writer trying to get by. But when women begin to turn up killed in their homes and their kids go missing, August knows that his past may not be so far behind him after all. When his ex-wife becomes the next target, August finds himself back in the world of Sorcery and black magic. Though things are about to get even more complicated as old enemies resurface and his past comes back with a new set of teeth.
