A woman of legend, a creature of blood. A Valkyrie. She has tortured, murdered, maimed—performing all the rituals needed to call forth the power of Odin himself and summon Ragnarok.

An agent of ARKANE, the British agency tasked with protecting the world from supernatural crises, Morgan knows that giving up the staff could spell the end of all things. Now the Crone has taken dozens of staff members, visitors—even children—hostage at the British Museum, demanding that Morgan turn over the staff. Willing to kill, possessor of powers beyond anything ARKANE has yet encountered, the Crone seems unstoppable. Morgan’s only advantages are her wit, her skill… and Blake Daniel (of the best-selling Brooke and Daniel crime thriller series). Cursed with clairvoyance, Blake’s powers may be just enough to help Morgan turn back the Crone and stop the end of the world. But the Crone has her own secrets.
