He tried to take her life. Now he’ll take someone she loves. Cara barely survived the last attack by an evil Pyx. You’d think almost dying to save her friends would earn her some goodwill. Instead, when she needs help the most—while flashbacks and rogue emotions haunt her, and strange symbols beg to be deciphered—her best friend walks away. Missing Wes’s support, Cara finds comfort where she never expected . . . with the person she never dared to dream might feel the same way she does. But just when she and Rhys are on the same page, her enemy delivers a horrifying threat. Surrender . . . or he’ll take the person she cares for the most. Desperate to keep everyone safe, Cara can’t let anyone get close to her, least of all Rhys. But as the feelings between them grow, so does the danger. When tragedy tears them apart, and odd disappearances point to a spy in their midst, Cara must find a way to climb from the darkness. If she can’t unite the group to fight again, they could lose someone forever. And she only has until daybreak.
