Saoirse is finding it harder and harder not to give into the temptation of her anger—and her loved ones, now in near constant danger, don’t seem to understand the pressure she’s under.Now, she’s sent Hugh away, and Brahm no longer trusts that Saoirse can keep her promises not to lose control of her powers. But with the ghost of her mother giving her courage, and Nan’s support, she still has to try to defeat the evils haunting the island.

No matter what, the people who love her aren’t ready to give up on her—but there’s also a force lurking, ready to betray them, that Saoirse can’t possibly expect. And someone she loves might just be their next victim.
