Potrebbe essere una situazione normale, se non fosse per il continuo desiderio che Ivy ha di nutrirsi delle altre persone, per la lingua tagliente che Jenks non sa tenere freno e per l’incredibile abilità che Rachel ha di infilarsi sempre in situazioni al limite del mortale. Stavolta tutto inizia quando accetta di indagare su una serie di omicidi che sta gettando scompiglio in nella comunità di streghe della città.

For after centuries of torment, a fearsome demon walks in the sunlight—freed at last to slay the innocent and devour their souls. But his ultimate goal is Rachel Morgan, and in the fight for survival that follows, even embracing her own demonic nature may not be enough to save her.
