Five years ago, Susie Vasilly disappeared without a word, leaving Slade Spencer with nothing but unanswered questions and a broken heart.
Believing she'd chosen another life, Slade buried his pain, turned his back on the strange powers running through his blood, and never looked back.
Until now.
A new commercial development has brought him home with one impossible assignment: convince the last two homeowners to sell so their houses can be demolished. One belongs to the woman who broke his heart. The other belongs to the uncle he's spent years trying to forget.
After five years overseas, Susie has finally returned home. Seeing her again awakens feelings Slade thought had died long ago. But she's frightened... guarded... and keeping secrets she refuses to share. Every time he gets close, she pushes him away, as though she's trying to protect him from something she cannot explain. She also keeps disappearing at night.
The only clue to what's going on happens to point to his uncle Galen. Draped in a black cape and claiming to be a powerful warlock, Galen has terrified generations of neighborhood children while making Slade the laughingstock of the town. Now the mysterious old man refuses to leave Thornhill Mansion where whispers, rumors, and far too many cats have surrounded him for years.
To uncover the truth, Slade must embrace the ancient Craft running through his blood before the darkness surrounding Susie claims them both.
Not every shadow hides a monster. Sometimes it hides the truth.
