"The wise learn many things from their enemies." My name's Atlanta Skolar, and I'm a huntress. No, not the vampire-slaying type, or the ever-brooding Winchester brothers from Supernatural. I live a relatively normal life - during the day at least. I go to school, have friends, and try my best to survive Uncle James' horrendous cooking.

They say it is not the fall that kills you. Maybe for humans this is true. Perhaps one could go on falling forever, and yet live on. I have heard them say you can get used to anything.

Or so, at least, it went for me.

Danger lurks behind every corner. A journey home becomes a matter of life or death. The Dunes await but chaos is already upon, ripping the very fabric of the realm.

Will they stay in the palace or make a desperate bid for freedom?

Fleeing the Archon Jeremiah's rage and his purge of Brooklyn, the vampire Tay Maslov has sought aid from neighboring Archon Bethania of Manhattan; decadent, nihilistic Bethania. The forever-young makes a deal with the young Feral; be her spy and all will be well. Perhaps she will even regain her place at an Archon's unholy side. But with the Shadow War between the Shifters and the Elders heating up, Kaiden and Tay find themselves dragged into a twisting game of play and counter-play.
