Bound by blood, duty, and magic. Which will win? Lily Singer’s allies and family are determined to hold John Faust accountable for his actions, but doing so may create more problems than it solves. From political intrigue to international alliances, Lily, Sebastian, and Sir Kipling must venture out into the larger wizard community and survive the first Wizard Convocation held in almost a century. And they can't just survive, they must win. Because the enemy they thought they'd defeated was only just getting started, and he always keeps his promises...especially when they involve death and destruction. With her ne'er-do-well witch and magical talking cat by her side, Lily will have to navigate broken family relationships, a daring rescue operation, and the struggle between light and dark within her own soul. They may have won the battle, but the war has only just begun.
