New life should mean new beginnings... not a countdown to the end.
With the birth of her twins, Vervain Lavine has entered a new chapter-one filled with love, responsibility... and a deadly new urgency. Her shattered star is failing, and if she can't fix it, this new beginning may be her last.
But time isn't on her side.
When Yemanja-the goddess who once saved her life-comes seeking help, Vervain can't refuse. Vodou practitioners are being brutally murdered, their souls dragged back and bound into slavery by a power that refuses to let the dead rest.
Now the Godhunter is caught in a race against time, forced to hunt down a soul-stealer while her own life hangs by a thread.
Because saving others has always been what she does best.
But this time, if she doesn't find a way to save herself too, she won't live long enough to see her children grow up.
