When a devastatingly gorgeous new arrival sweeps into the House of Night, everyone falls under his spell—but Zoey can't shake the feeling that something sinister lurks beneath Kalona's charming exterior. As his influence over the school grows stronger, Zoey discovers that understanding him means confronting painful truths from her past lives, forcing her to choose between protecting those she loves and facing secrets she's desperately tried to avoid. This heart-pounding installment ramps up the tension as Zoey and her loyal friends race to uncover the danger no one else seems to see before it's too late. With danger closing in from every direction, Zoey will have to trust her instincts—and her found family—more than ever before.
