Tonight, she rises... Separated from the love of her life, Cresta is determined to get him back before making a break from the dreaded Hourglass. The trouble is, she’s the only one who doesn’t think it’s a suicide mission. Throw in the fact that her powers are spiraling out of control and Royce seems to be the only one who can help, and things seem hopeless. But when Casper reveals a startling connection to a previously unknown piece of the prophecy, it sets Cresta on a path that will take her further away from Owen than she ever wanted to be. Can she find a way to stop the madness before the world itself crumbles and, even if she does, will she find that fate has pushed her into the arms of Royce? The Dragon lives... Meanwhile, deep within the bowels of the Hourglass, Owen Lightfoot sits a prisoner of the Council. His powers are growing too, and the Council is foaming at the mouth to use him as a weapon…against the woman he loves. With the safety of his family hanging in the balance, he is left with no other choice but to play along. But when a strange occurrence throws a whole new light on everything, the lines start to become blurred. Sacrifices will be made, connections will be tested and, by the end, either the Dragn or Owen will be gone forever.
