The banishment of evil Catmage Roah was supposed to bring peace. Instead, it may have unleashed something far worse. Razor knows the danger isn't over. Roah, now a Wild One forbidden from Catmage society forever, still has allies hidden within their ranks. When Razor begins to suspect that Kfir-a rising warrior and his personal enemy-may be one of Roah's secret agents, Captain Lila refuses to believe him.
Without proof, Razor can only watch and wait, knowing that his suspicions alone won't be enough to stop a traitor. Meanwhile, the legendary Nafshi faces her own upheaval when family duty calls. Suddenly responsible for her grandkittens-including one who may possess power rivaling her own-she must balance mentoring the next generation with protecting the Compound. When her son arrives for what should be a joyful visit, his routine trip to a neighboring Compound near Coreyton becomes dangerous when he and Lila encounter Roah himself.
As Nafshi reels from another disaster and Razor struggles to prove his suspicions about Kfir, Roah's evil plans continue to unfold. With the outcasts growing stronger and the Compound's defenses compromised, time is running out to stop a threat that strikes at the very heart of their world. The second thrilling installment in the prequel to The Catmage Chronicles reveals how grief and suspicion can tear apart even the strongest bonds when darkness threatens everything.
