With Zar'Asur's defeat, the Council hopes to have time to grieve for their losses and rebuild, but the demon Overlord has other plans. With the loss of the Master's book, Zar'Asur uses his remaining resources to summon another Overlord. The demon brothers have a new strategy, with a diabolical plot that the Council discovers too late. Mikel's calm, analytical mind is nearly broken when the Overlords successfully complete the first phase of their plan. The rest of the Council must pick up the pieces and move forward in an attempt to discover the true plot, while still trying to rebuild their own ranks. They find new allies in unexpected places and the true evil of the Overlords is revealed once again. Loyalties and friendships will be tested and no one will walk away unscathed. This is the second book in the Light in the Darkness Series. Reading the first book, Light's Rise, will make the second much more enjoyable.
