Dante Raintree stands as king when the Ansara wizards rise after two centuries of defeat. His mastery over fire falters when Lorna Clay enters his world, making him question whether she brings salvation or destruction. Meanwhile, Mercy Raintree must guard the Sanctuary in the Smoky Mountains while hiding a dangerous secret from Dranir Judah Ansara, who seeks her death. When Judah discovers her daughter Eve, everything changes. Detective Gideon Raintree commands electricity and speaks with the dead. A serial killer unleashed by dark Ansara magic forces him to use powers he has kept secret. Racing against time with his partner Hope Mallory, Gideon fights to protect their love and their unborn child. Three Raintree descendants must use their supernatural abilities to defend their clan in a war that will determine the fate of both magical bloodlines.
