She went through the kitten to reach her. Nobody comes back from Agnes unchanged.
Elena has been marked since the night her brother gave himself up to save a stranger. Now the thing that wears Agnes's face is spreading beyond Beth Haven, and Elena makes the choice no one else dares: she crosses through the kitten doorway into the dark world to end it.
On the other side, she finds the truth at last - a frontier widow in the brutal winter of 1748, a bargain struck with something that lied, and three hundred years of hunger wearing a woman's shape. Understanding Agnes is the only weapon Elena has. The forbidden book is the other one - and its spell is paid for in blood.
Elena comes home. But not all of what crossed back with her can be seen in a mirror - and what the spell left inside her is only beginning.
MEOW 5: REBORN is the final book of Brian Edlin's MEOW series - the longest, the darkest, and the one where every question gets its answer. Agnes wanted her child back. She has waited three centuries. She is done waiting.
