Part of The Lost Sentinel
First published 2019
Vinna has a magic problem. It fires off whenever it wants, with no regard for her intentions, and now Enoch and his entire coven are watching her like she is the answer to something she does not understand. Her Chosen are already angry. She has no explanations to give them. Then things get worse. Lachlan and Keegan get taken by Adriel, a lamia who has spent years hunting and killing Sentinels. The clock is moving fast. Vinna and her Chosen are not battle ready, and the list of the missing keeps getting longer. Adriel has been coming for Vinna her whole life. That history is about to become a confrontation. Vinna does not want answers from the lamia. She wants the lamia dead. Getting there means pulling together a fractured group of people, controlling power that refuses to be controlled, and walking straight into a fight that has beaten everyone who tried it before her. The emotional core of the book sits right there: Vinna knows the odds, names them out loud, and moves forward anyway.
