The clans are gathering for the traditional Halloween Ceilidh at Thane Manor.
This year, Sybil Thane plans to use the annual chaos to escape her gilded cage. She is a throwback, a witch born without magical powers, who lives under house arrest. No longer!
She was seventeen when she met Ulric Hawthorn for the first and only time. Now twenty-one years old, she has to find the man who promised to save her when she was all grown up.
As evil forces surround the old mansion, Ulric, now a senior agent in law enforcement, commands a unit poised to catch the thugs. The first person he meets at Thane Manor is Sybil. While he doesn’t recognize the adult version of her, their connection is instantaneous, powerful, and ill-fated.
But he cannot abandon his mission for the beautiful young woman who is vaguely familiar.
Burned by his indifference, Sybil disappears into the night.
She knows exactly where she is headed but she can’t say why. A small town called Benton has been hailing her for hours. With a heart full of hope, she drives toward that beacon unaware of the dangers ahead.
