With the myriad of supernatural beings after Maddy Page, she knew it was only a matter of time before one succeeded in taking her. Supposedly, the demon Justin did it to help her-believing that if they uncover why she's so unique, her odds of survival will improve. She does want to know, but can she really trust a murderer? Justin should be traveling the world with Mads, but instead they're in hiding. He blames his sudden need to play the hero on the mortal feelings Mads has cursed him with. He's in over his head, but he'll stop at nothing to save her-even teaming up with an enemy. Meanwhile, MJ and his friends have scoured the globe to find Maddy, yet they've repeatedly come up empty. Now fear and desperation lead MJ on a dark path, one that risks exposing her even further. The danger Maddy's faced so far is nothing compared to the future that awaits her if her true identity is revealed.
