An underworld serial killer prowls the streets. The head of a criminal guild arrives demanding the help of the Order. Things had been quiet since the incident on Tsalbrin, but veteran terra-dracon demonhunter Karian Vanador recognized the calm before the storm all too well. When one of the Order's most prominent mortal enemies arrives on campus demanding help with an underworld threat, Kari knows there has to be a connection to the incident on Tsalbrin. Harried by a deadly foe, Kari must call upon friends old and new to track down an assassin leaving a trail of bodies in her wake. Along the way she must figure out: are the killings just the act of a depraved demon, or an ingenious plot to shatter the barriers between Citaria and the underworld? "White Serpent, Black Dragon" is the second volume in the Eve of Redemption series.
